About :

Book Club meet up discussing The Wish by Nicholas Sparks, drinks and snacks included.

In 1996, sixteen-year-old Maggie Dawes was sent to live with her aunt in Ocracoke, North Carolina, where she met Bryce Trickett, a kind and handsome young man who introduced her to photography, sparking a lifelong passion. By 2019, Maggie has become a celebrated travel photographer, running a gallery in New York and capturing scenes worldwide. However, a serious medical diagnosis forces her to stay home over Christmas, where she grows close to her young assistant. As they share the holiday season, Maggie recounts the story of her first love, a Christmas that changed her life forever.

Ticket sales

Your contribution not only secures your spot at the event but, more importantly, funds our ability to host events across the country. Our mission is to extend the reach of Dear Community across New Zealand, and your ticket purchase plays a crucial role in making this vision a reality. We rely on these ticket sales to pay our charity overheads, such as leader tickets, accounting, salaries, lawyers, subscriptions, designs and so much more. As a non-profit organisation and due to the nature of our events, refunds are not possible. Please note, Dear Community is now officially GST registered which means we have had to apply an additional 15% to every ticket to go towards GST. We appreciate your understanding and support in making our community-building initiatives possible.

Please note, by purchasing a ticket, you are agreeing to Dear Community’s terms and conditions.

Attendance Policy

In order to ensure the smooth running of our events and to show respect for everyone involved, we request that attendees provide a minimum of 24 hours notice if they are unable to attend a ticketed event. Failure to do so may result in restrictions on purchasing tickets for future events organised by Dear Community.

This policy is in place to allow our leaders to offer the space to other community members in a timely manner. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
