71 S. Franklin Street Wilkes-Barre, PA 18701 www.osterhout.info Dear Friend of the Library: We invite you to support your public library by sponsoring the upcoming Santorini Soirée Osterhout Gala, set for Friday, September 13th. All proceeds from this event will benefit the Osterhout Free Library, still going strong after 130 years of service. Most importantly, the soirée will bring in necessary funds to support our public library, a downtown landmark and city treasure. The 2018 Gala was a huge success, raising $109,000. We think the 2019 event could be even better, but we need your help to achieve our goals. Funds raised provide important programs, services and materials for patrons all year long. Recently, library patrons shared their memories and thoughts on the importance of the Osterhout Free Library in their lives. The library has been part of my life for as long as I remember. Lois A. The library was my first professional job. The reading room has changed from its days as the reference department, but I still love that part of the library and the fireplace! Elaine B. One of my favorite places. So many books yet to discover. Phyllis S. I really appreciate the Osterhout Library. It s been a great resource to help me develop my career. Isabella K. Please review the sponsorship levels and benefits included here. We hope you can support us in some way. Any questions, please contact Chris Kelly, Director of Development at 570.823.0156 x 218 or ckelly@luzernelibraries.org. Respectfully yours, Molly Hoegen Gala Chair Jane Alperin Artistic Design Chair Lissa Bryan-Smith Auction Chair Traci Cross Trip Raffle Sales Chair Lindsay Griffin Sponsorship Chair Pamela Lacroix Creative + Marketing Chair PS: The Soirée invitations will be mailed in July.
