🌿🍸 Thank You, Brooklyn! 🍸🌿

On behalf of the Friends of the Macon Library, thank you to everyone who joined us for our Garden Party Happy Hour Fundraiser at Cocktail Bed-Stuy!

Because of your generosity and community spirit, we exceeded our fundraising goal of $1000 and raised over $2400 to support programs and initiatives at the Macon Library while supporting our local businesses! We are incredibly grateful to everyone who attended, donated, volunteered, and helped spread the word.

A special thank you to our local business partners, Cocktail Bed-Stuy and Julia Gin, for helping make this event such a success while showcasing the best of our neighborhood.

Missed the fundraiser? You can still support the Friends all month long! Stop by Cocktail Bed-Stuy and order the delicious Literary Spritz, crafted with locally distilled Julia Gin. A portion of the proceeds from every Literary Spritz sold throughout the month will benefit the Friends of the Macon Library.

Thank you for helping us strengthen our library and our community, one book, one event, and one cocktail at a time. Cheers to community, literacy, and local businesses! πŸ“šβ€οΈπŸ₯‚
