Durango Public Library

Room 1&2 Combined

Let's get together and cook a potluck of recipes from our families!

This month will be a little different than our usual Cookbook Club meetings. Everyone is invited to cook a recipe that has been passed down in your family or was a part of your childhood. No need to share the exact written recipe with the group, but feel free to share if you would like!

Here's how it works:

1. Register for the club online.

2. Cook your recipe for a group potluck at the library!
