Description
Plenty Downtown Bookshop presents a regency-themed evening of entertainment and purpose. We'll gather for a night dedicated to our nonprofit's mission to improve literacy and elevate book culture in the Upper Cumberland, celebrating what we've accomplished and looking forward to what's ahead. Join us at the brand new Putnam County Convention Center for this year's event. The silent auction begins at six, with dinner at seven, and then the night will unfold with a live auction, dancing, and entertainment. Everything is centered around our love of reading and the powerful belief that books can change lives. Dress is formal, and dressing according to the theme is highly encouraged.
