READ 718 Reads!

Annual Benefit READ 718 Reads! Giving Tuesday

 

In the fall of 2018, READ 718 launched READ 718 Reads!, a series of intimate fundraiser book clubs. READ 718 Reads! events bring together 30-40 adult guests and the author of a current book in a private Brooklyn home where they discuss the work over dinner with the author. Our first READ 718 Reads! event (November 2018) featured Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jennifer Egan discussing her novel Manhattan Beach and our most recent event (February 2023) hosted Hua Hsu discussing his memoir, Stay True. Thank you for enthusiastically supporting these events!
