Joyner Library hosting human library event

The Third Annual Human Library event will be taking place on Tuesday, April 12 from 1-4 p.m. in the Faulkner Gallery of Joyner Library.

This special event allows attendees to check out human beings. Each of the “human books” is pre-selected because they have an interesting life story to share. After attendees choose a human book based on the title and description provided, they are paired with them to have a 10-15 minute conversation.

Topics this year include religion and spirituality, health-related topics, families, and more. The purpose of the event is to open dialog on campus about including people of all beliefs, walks of life, abilities, and backgrounds. This is a Wellness Passport Premiere event; classes are invited to take part in the program, as well. It is free and open to the public.

The Humans of Greenville gallery opening will take place directly afterwards at 4:30 p.m.
