Lewis County Emerging Professionals to Host “Book
Fair for Grown Ups”
A nostalgic night out with books, merch, and community connection at
Lowville Free Library
Lowville, NY- Lewis County
Emerging Professionals (EP) is putting a grown-up twist on a childhood
favorite. The first-ever Book Fair for Grown Ups will be held on Thursday,
September 18, from 6–8 p.m. at Lowville Free Library. Admission for the
Fair is $5 and includes early access to the Library’s
annual book sale, three books of your choice, and exclusive book
fair–inspired merchandise and goodies. All proceeds will benefit the
Lowville Free Library.
The Book Fair for
Grown Ups serves as a kickoff to the library’s annual book sale, which
features hundreds of books spanning every genre, from retired library
titles to community donations. The sale will continue with public hours
Saturday, September 20 through September 27. There will be no admission fee
for the sale during the public hours. Donations of
gently used books are being accepted at the library through Wednesday,
September 17.
EP is a social
group for local emerging and established professionals. They regularly host
happy hours, networking opportunities, fundraisers for local non-profits,
and community events. It was established 10 years ago as a capstone project
for Lewis County Leadership Academy, and it continues to evolve ways of
blending fun, philanthropy, and social events.
“We love seeing
how people interact during the book sale — chatting, recommending titles,
and finding a favorite author, whether for themselves or a friend who is
browsing a couple tables over,” said Meghan Harney, Director of Lowville
Free Library. “We expect the book fair is going to be a new level of fun, and are so excited to work with Lewis County EP to
add to the book sale!"

opportunities to connect, visit www.lewiscountyep.com and follow EP on

invited to join. Upcoming events include the Book Fair, monthly happy
hours, and the annual holiday party which will also serve as a fundraiser
for Office of the Aging's Santa for Seniors initiative.

The Lewis County
Emerging Professionals network was established to attract and retain
professionals by enhancing the social, professional, and community outreach
opportunities available to emerging professionals within Lewis County and
to increase the opportunity for communication, shared knowledge and
interaction between those individuals, uniting them in a common cause to
promote community development and service.
