Thank you everyone for a great 2026 One Book Read event! We are busy working on being able to make an announcement for our 2027 event. Stay tuned to this page and keep on reading! 📖📖

Beyond the Page: A Challenger Center Conversation with Andy Weir

What if a middle school science teacher was humanity’s last hope? That is the premise Andy Weir brought to life in Project Hail Mary- and it’s the message at the heart of Challenger Center: to change the world and improve the future through STEM.

The Challenger Learning Center at Paducah is excited to announce we will be participating in a virtual webinar live with Andy Weir that will include Q&A with the author, moderated by national Challenger Center president Mike Kinkaid. Because we have access to this webinar, so do you!

Please join us on May 4, 2026, from 3:00-4:00 pm at the Clemens Fine Arts Center on the campus of WKCTC to be part of this very special event! We will join other Challenger Learning Centers around the country to hear from this talented author!

Another great presentation from Jeff Zentner - Author today at the Student Center. Our committee greatly appreciates all who came out to hear him speak. We can’t wait to announce our 2027 One Book Read soon!
