On Friday, October 27th, Literacy Volunteers – Huntington Beach Public Library will host “Wine & Words,” our 5th annual fundraising event in support of our literacy program. Join us as we raise funds and awareness of adult literacy in our community.
The event will be held at the Meadowlark Golf Club, from 7-10 pm. Parking is free! Registration is $55 per person. We will be tasting a variety of wines from your wine specialists at Southern Hemisphere Wine Center. Light hors d'oeuvres will be served. You will hear from learners in the program, as well as our keynote speaker, who is sure to inspire with her story of overcoming adversity.
We are pleased to have PK Realty as an event sponsor. We thank them for their generous support!
