Friends of the Palisades Library will be hosting a gathering for its members and the community on Saturday, February 22, beginning at 10:30 a.m. at Westwood Branch Library.
“While our hearts are broken over the devastation our beloved town has experienced, many of you have asked for an opportunity to get together with others from the Palisades to re-connect and spend some time in each other’s company,” President of the Friends, also known as Pacific Palisades Library Association, Laura Schneider said.
Susan Orlean—author of “The Library Book”—will be in attendance and speak briefly about “the special place that libraries continue to hold in our hearts and minds,” according to the event description.
“There will not be an agenda for this meeting and this will not be an informational session,” according to Schneider. “Rather, it will simply be an opportunity for PPLA members and other community members to re-connect with each other.”
Westwood Branch Community Room is connected to a patio area—which will be used if weather permits—and Friends of the Palisades Library asked guests to dress accordingly.
“Parking is available in the library’s parking structure,” the event description read. “There is also metered street parking in the area. Please abide by any posted street-parking restrictions.”
The event will run from 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Westwood Branch Library, located at 1246 Glendon Avenue.
Because of space limitations, interested parties are asked to RSVP by emailing friends@friendsofpalilibrary.org with the names of those who plan to attend.
