In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, Library lovers are sharing their passion for the Los Angeles Public Library!
Invitations to the 25th Edition of the Stay Home and Read a Book Ball dropped last week, and the eager replies for the popular “non-event” are flooding in! Here are just a few ways “attendees” are planning to celebrate:
Patton Oswalt wants to be seated with H. P. Lovecraft and plans to read Tenth of December by George Saunders.
Patricia Olson will dine with Charles Dickens and read Bleak House.
Laura Glass will revel with Margaret Mitchell but hasn’t yet decided which book to read.
There’s still time to join the festivities on Friday, March 1, 2013! RSVP at www.lfla.dev/stayhome and tell us how you’re celebrating on Twitter @LibraryFoundLA #LFLAStayHome and Facebook.
Sincerest thanks to the generous sponsors of this year’s Stay Home and Read a Book Ball! With gifts from thoughtful individuals like you, the Library Foundation of Los Angeles can continue to support the Los Angeles Public Library’s crucial cultural and educational programs, including the award-winning [ALOUD] series.
