It was the original House Party, before Cornucopia was even invented – a November gathering in one of Pemberton’s most beautiful estate houses, stocked with wine and cheese and dressed-up locals, all in aid of a little library doing big things.

The library has changed locations. As has the “house party.” But it’s still a little library doing big things. And a great fundraiser to pencil into your annual calendar.

Hosted by the Friends of the Library, under the leadership of the inimitable Julie Kelly, the 21 year old fundraiser moved into the Community Centre Great Hall and Library once the building was complete.

It’s set for Friday November 22 at 7pm.

Tickets are $20 and available at the library.
