The Los Angeles Times Festival of Books is gearing up for a jam-packed literary weekend, but the festivities won’t stop when T.C. Boyle and Judy Blume leave the stage. The Library Foundation’s Young Literati is thrilled to keep the festivities going into the wee hours this Saturday night as host of this year’s “go-to” after-party of the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books. If you want to rub elbows with your favorite authors, weed your personal library, swap books, and party at the historic downtown Central Library, then become a member of the Young Literati and receive two complimentary tickets to The Book Drop BASH! 

It’s a win-win-! Join Young Literati to become a vanguard of the Library Foundation’s mission to raise awareness and support for the library, and get bashed. The Book Drop Bash is exclusive for members of the Young Literati and their guests, and participating Festival authors.

The evening will feature a bookswap, so bring books, take books. Leftover books at the end of the evening will be donated to the Library Store where they’ll be sold to benefit the Los Angeles Public Library. To take advantage of this special offer, please contact Justin Veach, Director of New Initiatives at 213.228.7326 or [email protected] by Friday, April 20th at 5:00 pm.
