Presented by Tompkins County Public Library Foundation

Silent Reading Party 7.13.2025

About This Event

There's nothing better than a cozy afteroon with a book - unless it's reading alongside other library lovers in a celebration of our Right to Read!

Join us for the ultimate introvert's outing - an afternoon of quiet reading, delicious drinks & snacks, and community with other booklovers in the Backyard at Northstar Public House.in Ithaca. Sign up to get a library card, learn how you can support TCPL, and check out what others are reading. You can bring books to swap with other readers too - and whatever's unclaimed at the end of the party will be donated to the Friends of TCPL for their fall booksale!  If you forget your book, you can also borrow one, on the spot, from a curated selection from TCPL.

Seating is limited! Bring a camp chair or blanket, if possible. Thank you!
