This year's Beyond Words gala, hosted by the Friends and Foundation of Princeton Public Library, is a two-night celebration of the spirit of our community and the transformative power of the library.
Beyond Words 2024 opens on Oct. 15 at Nassau Presbyterian Church with an author talk and VIP reception featuring John Grisham and Jim McCloskey discussing their book "Framed: Astonishing True Stories of Wrongful Convictions."
The Gala Reception, featuring a silent auction and gourmet grazing tables, follows on Saturday, Oct. 19, at the Frick Chemistry Laboratory at Princeton University.
Nearly 2,000 people of all ages come to Princeton Public Library each day to cultivate their love of learning, develop new skills, engage in dialogue and enrich our town. Whether you attend one or both nights of Beyond Words, we hope you'll join us as we celebrate the role the library plays in bringing our community together.
Tickets may be reserved through the library's website.
