Inaugural Annual Literary Benefit: The Cornwall Library’s first annual literary fundraiser will celebrate the 155th birthday of Georgia O’Keeffe. This will feature a slide lecture by Roxana Robinson entitled, “Georgia O’Keeffe: Reading the Work as the Life.” Robinson will show works that illuminate the artist’s life and reveal the stylistic development of one of America’s greatest modernist painters. Robinson is the author of the biography, “Georgia O’Keeffe: A Life.” A signed copy of her book will be included in the fee for in-person attendance. November 12 at 4:00.

So bring your friends, feast on O’Keeffe’s ravishing work, and stay for the festive reception. Enjoy birthday cake, wine and conversation as you support the Cornwall Library and its Literary Programs.

The event will be both in-person and on zoom. It will not be recorded. The fee for in-person attendance (and a signed book) is $155. The fee for zoom is $50 (no book). Signed copies of the book can be bought at the Library in person – sorry, no mailing!
