The library is hosting a gala-style celebration—and you're invited! Join us on September 27 from 7–9 p.m. throughout the library for One Book, One Gala, an evening inspired by The Stolen Queen by Fiona Davis, this year’s One Book, One Village selection, which partly takes place at New York City's iconic Met Gala.
Join us for an after-hours event celebrating art, culture and fashion. Show off your creativity with your best red carpet-ready look and immerse yourself in a library transformed. Guests will enjoy live music from Nahum Smith of El Rey Music Center, a dessert table from Soha's Sweet Treats, art galleries, a mini costume institute, a live art demonstration from Mine Anil of Blue Fern Ceramics, and more. Signature cocktails and mocktails will be available for purchase from Bitter & Sweet Cocktails.
Visit the Arlington Heights Memorial Library Foundation's "Queens" table and participate in a themed raffle. All funds from the raffle will benefit the purchase of a new Bookmobile.
Semi-formal wear encouraged but not required. Ages 16 and up.
