Richmondtown branch, New York Public Library
200 Clarke Ave, SINY 10306

This is our Kick-Off event for The Big Read – Tom Sawyer.
Tom Sawyer tricked his friends into doing a messy chore: Whitewashing a big ole fence.
But at OutLOUD’s fence-painting party, you won’t get paint on your shoes.

Instead, you can have fun decorating Tom’s picket fence with art, quotes, poetry.
Bring a favorite, or get one from us.

We’ll have a selection of Twain quotes, poems, scenes of Staten Island landmarks:
What’s most important to you about our hometown? Isn’t it a lot like Hannibal, Missouri?

Meet Mark Twain in person!
19th century music by Joan & Gary Moore.
Readings from Tom Sawyer by celebrity guests.
More details TBA.

Perfect for all ages!
