Doors will open at 7 p.m. the night of each event, and the performance will begin promptly at 7:30 p.m. Seating is limited and available on a first-come, first served basis. Please plan to arrive before the scheduled starting time. All BookHouse programs are free and open to the public. The BookHouse program takes place in the Edinger Community Room of Eastern Monroe Public Library, located at 1002 North 9th Street (Rt. 611 and Chipperfield Drive) in Stroudsburg. For more information call (570) 421-0800, x312.
Bookhouse would like to introduce you to the Friends of the EMPL and their cultural activities. The Friends, a not-for-profit organization, is best known for their giant Annual June Book Sale. This past Spring they featured workshops such as Scratching on Paper, a Writers Workshop with Betsy Jackson and a Watercolor for Adult class.
Upcoming Friends events for this year include a dramatic presentation of “Legend of Sleepy Hollow” and a bus trip to New York City in November. Click here for 2012 cultural events schedule.
The Bookhouse is not affiliated with the Friends of EMPL but is pleased to present a wonderful friend to our community.”
