Join Malden Reads on Wednesday, March 20 at 6:30 p.m. for a community dinner – one of the events for this year’s featured book, “Being Heumann: An Unrepentant Memoir of a Disability Rights Activist,” by Judith Heumann. Dinner will be at 110 Grill at 200 Exchange St., starting at 6:30. Parking is available at the Jackson Street Garage, and 110 Grill will provide free validated parking there.
The evening will begin with social time and a buffet of appetizers. Afterwards attendees will sit down, and guests will be able to order from a limited selection of main dishes. All dishes can be prepared gluten-free, and vegetarian options will be available. The restaurant is fully accessible; questions about accessibility can be directed to 110 Grill.
The cost of the evening is $28, including appetizers, a main dish, tax and tip. Drinks and dessert may be purchased individually. Reservations must be made and paid for no later than March 18 by directly contacting 110 Grill at 781-605-2172. Please tell them you are with the Malden Reads dinner on March 20. You can provide your credit card number by phone or prepay with cash by visiting the restaurant in person. When you arrive for the event, you will be given a gift card to use to pay for your dinner.
All are welcome! “We hope you have read the book but it is not required to attend. Being Heumann highlights the history of the disability rights movement in this country, and is available in book, e-book, and other formats at the Malden Public Library and for purchase at The Gallery@57 on Pleasant Street.” Through informal conversation, there will be an opportunity to discuss themes from the book, including disability awareness, hidden disabilities, the benefits of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to non-disabled people, civil rights and human rights and the power of one person working in collaboration with a team to create change.
