About this event

  • Event lasts 3 hours

Please join us on Friday evening, May 2, 2025 at TLC Studios and Media Lab in Dedham, for the culmination program of Dedham’s annual community-wide reading event Dedham Reads Together. This year’s program is titled "Dedham Reads Together 2025: Celebrating Unlikely Friendships," which features our lead book selection The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating by Elisabeth Tova Bailey.

The event will be a “Wine Tasting and Paint Nite" led by “unlikely partners” Peter H. Reynolds (author/illustrator from The Blue Bunny, TLC Studios) who will lead guests in a stress-free painting activity (yes, our paintings will be snail-themed), and restaurateur and wine expert Stan Hilbert (Few & Far, Satellite Bottle Shop), who will offer a wine tasting with commentary on the natural and organic wines he pours. Funds raised are used to sponsor events and materials for the Dedham Public Library and the libraries of the Dedham Public Schools.

DLIT is a 501c3 non-profit committed to supporting the strategic vision & development of a best-in-class, vibrant public & school library system in Dedham. We believe that libraries can and should be vibrant "community centers" - where we celebrate and nurture learning, arts, culture and community development. In 2015, DLIT was honored with a Massachusetts School Library Association Advocate Award. Each year, DLIT uses the proceeds from this annual fundraiser to support our public and school libraries with grant requests for new technology, materials, publications and paid programming. We sponsor films, author events, children's programming and community-wide advocacy for our libraries, with the eventual goal of creating a first-class library system for the town of Dedham.
