One of my favorite ways to kick off summer is Lafayette’s Night at the Library, benefitting the Lafayette Library and Learning Center. I love this event, and I love our library for so many reasons. I believe a great library can serve as the foundation of a great community, and our library is a perfect example. In this one central place at the corner of Mt. Diablo Boulevard and 1st Street you can meet bestselling authors, learn about upcoming Bay Area museum exhibits, look at the stars through a powerful telescope, and, of course, check out books! Educational and entertaining programs for all ages make our library a communal gathering spot for children, adults, families, and seniors. I really can’t think of any many places where all ages come together in pursuit of a common goal. At the library, that goal is knowledge.
Night at the Library is Saturday, June 1 at 6:00pm. The party starts in the Library’s Community Hall with music, hors d’oeuvres, cocktails and wine, and a live auction. It then moves to the main library where guests will enjoy delicious bites, specialty cocktails, and a bountiful silent auction. At the evening’s end, guests are invited outside to the amphitheater for coffee, dessert and dancing under the stars.
My team and I hope you join us at this great event. Purchase tickets here. If you can’t attend but would like to participate in the silent auction click here.
Fun fact, a stay at Dana and Todd’s St Helena home will be auctioned off!
