Love, Your Library - A supporters event

You are invited to an intimate luncheon honoring the impact of your generosity and looking ahead to an extraordinary new chapter for Monterey County Free Libraries.

We are excited to invite you to gather with fellow library champions at Salt Wood Kitchen for a chef-curated, build-your-own taco and nacho bar featuring fresh, locally inspired flavors, paired with house-made margaritas. Together, we will mark the long-awaited reopening of the Pajaro Library after three years of flood-related closure and celebrate the groundbreaking of two new libraries in Bradley and East Garrison.

The afternoon will also feature local author and BBC reporter Alison van Diggelen, author of The Love Project, sharing a timely reflection on love, connection, and community and why every story matters.

As a member of our Leadership Giving Circle, you will be invited to help lead our year-end giving challenge—inspiring others throughout Monterey County to join you in creating a place where every story belongs.
