Dear Editor:
Novel Night, Volume 5, a literary dining event sponsored by the Friends of the Hoboken Public Library to benefit the Library, was a great success! More than 200 guests were wined and dined by one of 20 Hoboken hosts who served delectable dinners based on a book of their choice on Saturday, October 18.
The Friends of the Hoboken Library are extremely grateful for everyone’s generosity and participation. We were especially fortunate this year to tap into so much Hoboken talent, with many local authors either hosts or guests. It was truly a community event in support of an important local institution, and we thank everyone who contributed to making this Novel Night a success—hospitable hosts, generous sponsors, guests, and committee members; a full list will appear in the Friends’ winter newsletter. Meanwhile, visit our website at www.hobokenfol.org/novelnight.html to see some dinner photos.
Funds raised by Novel Night, Volume 5, will go toward the upcoming renovations of the historic Hoboken Public Library.
Sincerely,
Ruth Charnes
Chair, Novel Night Committee
