Add to Calendar 2024-08-06 18:00:00 2024-08-06 19:00:00 America/New_York Blind Date with a Book What better way to show your love for Book Lovers Day than going on a blind date with a book? La Plata Branch -

What better way to show your love for Book Lovers Day than going on a blind date with a book?

To celebrate Book Lovers Day on August 9th, join us for a fun evening of crafting unique bookmarks while finding your next great read! We will have lots of books for you to choose from but, plot twist - you won't be able to judge them by their cover as they will be all wrapped up. There will be brief descriptions to help you decide which book you want to go on a blind date with. Maybe you’ll find a new favorite or maybe you will find the next book you rant about to all your friends and family! Either way, join us for an evening of celebrating our love of books!

If you have questions, please contact the La Plata Branch at 301-934-9001 or email laplataref@ccplonline.org.
