Later in the Library will include a reading-themed educational Beer Tasting with presentation by Kevin Eckles of The Better Beer Store. Beers will be based on “Books to Screen” titles including Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Silence of the Lambs, Stand By Me, and Fight Club.

The library will also be holding two Behind-The-Scenes Library Tours where attendees will learn the ins and outs of our historic Handley Library building. Tours will be held at 7 PM and 7:45 PM.
