The Young Literati have arrived!

On June 2, the St. Louis Public Library Foundation held a kickoff party for our new young friends group, the Young Literati, at Central Library.  One hundred people attended to enjoy drinks and appetizers, and to meet new and interesting individuals with a shared love of the St. Louis Public Library.  After the party, the group moved downstairs to Central’s Events Pavillion for a free concert.  Local band Samba Bom performed a set of Brazillian music and even offered a quick dance lesson to the crowd.

The Young Literati is a diverse group of young professionals ages 20s and up.  Its mission is to enhance the life and vitality of the Library by supporting its programs and by building relationships with others in the community who share a passion for the Library’s work.  A core group of 25 people became members at our kickoff party, and many more have asked to be kept updated on future activities.

This party was sponsored by:  Schlafly Beer, St. Louis Originals, Kitchen K, Whole Foods Market and the St. Louis Public Library.

We are building on the energy generated at the party, with several Young Literati events planned for the rest of the year.  If you would like to learn more about joining the Young Literati, visit us online at www.slplfoundation.org or contact Liz Reeves at 314-340-2403.
