VISIT THE CENTER
Come to JCBA to experience books like you've never seen before. We welcome community groups, classes from Florida Atlantic and other universities and colleges, groups of friends and family, professional groups, and classes from high schools and middle schools and elementary schools. Schedule an hour with us and we'll open your eyes to a whole new way of thinking, where the ubiquitous becomes astounding. Groups of 8 to 24 are ideal, but we can bend the rules a bit in either direction. Contact us for more details or to schedule.

Dear Friends,
We've built such a wonderful global community since we began beaming Real Mail Fridays
out to the world through our weekly online JCBA Zoom socials, and it is truly humbling
and heartwarming to see friends join us each week and new folks, too, from all corners
of this vast planet. In that spirit, we have no plans to end our weekly Zoom version of
Real Mail Fridays.
