Empowering Through Literacy & Connection
Welcome to Fifteen Chapters – more than just a book club. It’s a community where you’ll find support, inspiration, and connections that’ll last a lifetime. Discover exciting opportunities, meet like-minded people, and enjoy experiences that will make your journey even more enjoyable.

When Stories Come to Life
The First Chapter: A Summer Picnic
Our very first event took place in the heart of Central Park, bringing together a community of readers for an afternoon of conversation and connection. With icebreakers, book giveaways, and raffle baskets filled with literary essentials, we set the foundation for what Fifteen Chapters is today—a space for meaningful discussions and lasting friendships.
Stronger Together: FC x Eqiunox
We partnered with Equinox DUMBO to host an exclusive private cycling class, highlighting the connection between physical and mental wellness. With energizing workouts, nourishing food, refreshing drinks, and books to inspire, we cultivated a space where movement met mindfulness
Stories of Heritage: A Literary Celebration
In collaboration with Clairol Hair Color, we gathered to celebrate Hispanic heritage through literature, culture, and connection. Discussing The House on Mango Street, we shared personal stories, explored identity, and embraced the richness of our diverse experiences.
Vision & Purpose: A Vision Board Experience
At Seek Coffee, we hosted an inspiring vision board party where attendees came together to set their intentions, dream boldly, and bring their goals to life. Surrounded by creativity, coffee, and pastries, we crafted visual roadmaps for the future in a space filled with motivation and community.
“Books are uniquely portable magic, but the friendships we build along the way are the real treasures”
Our Superpower is Each Other
Welcome to Fifteen Chapters, a community born from a love of literature and the power of connection. Founded in 2023 by Glory Cepeda, we started as nearly strangers with a passion for books and quickly grew into a movement for empowerment and growth. Through curated events, we bring people together to spark meaningful connections, inspire learning, and leave everyone feeling better than when they arrived.
Our mission is simple: to reignite a love for literacy and create a lasting impact, one chapter at a time.
