Buffalo Reading Invasion

Due to the weather, we have rescheduled the August Reading Invasion at the Richardson Olmsted Campus for Tuesday, August 29th at 6:45.

Hope to see you there, Buffalo!

Buffalo Friends:

It’s August, and we are really excited to announced the final Reading Invasion of the summer of 2017, taking place on Tuesday August 22nd at 7pm. This time around, we are going to Invade one of the most exciting new spaces in Buffalo: on the south lawn of the Richardson Olmsted Campus!

For those of you who haven’t visited this recently renovated and reclaimed space–and as those who were at the incredible EnLIGHTen event can attest–the Richardson Olmsted Campus is already a gem in city, and we are thrilled to be partnering with them to make this night possible.

So please join on next Tuesday night for a special evening of reading, community, and one of Buffalo’s most beautiful public places.

Buffalo Friends!

Please join us for a mid-summer Reading Invasion taking place on Monday July 24th at 7pm. 

We’ll be announcing the location and more details soon. Please mark your calendars, get your summer reading together, and let your friends know about the next Invasion!

Buffalo Friends:

The June 2017 Reading Invasion date and location has been announced. We are kicking things off on Tuesday June 13th at 7pm in Bidwell Parkway–on the Talking Leaves/Aroma side of the street.

The reading begins at 7pm. All are welcome. Just bring something to read, something to sit on, and a friend (though you of course can come by yourself)

If you haven’t been to an Invasion before, the idea is simple: Participants bring something to read and “invade” one of our many beautiful public spaces around Buffalo. This isn’t a book club; just a time to come together, to enjoy the act of reading, and to remind our fellow Buffalonians that reading is an essential element in the many of our lives.

Friends:

With summer just around the corner, we are excited for yet another great season of Buffalo Reading Invasions!

As usual, we will be holding three Reading Invasions this summer: one in June, one in July, and a final Invasion in August.

Dates and locations will be coming soon!

Buffalo Friends:

Please join us for the final Reading Invasion of 2016! To end the season, we are partnering once again with Grassroots Gardens to explore some more hidden gems in Buffalo.

Please join us on Monday August 29th from 6:30pm – 7:30pm at the Shakespeare Garden on the corner of Porter Avenue and Jersey (433 Porter), directly in front of the Karpeles Manuscript Library (on Facebook) and/or in the Life Memorial Park, across the street at the corner of Normal and Porter.

Please bring a book, something sit on, a picnic or dinner if you wish, and join us for a quiet hour of reading in yet another wonderful Buffalo spot.
