Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, Link to Libraries Gala

May 8 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm EDT

Link to Libraries is thrilled to announce its biennial Gala, a special evening that celebrates the organization’s transformative impact in the community while raising vital funds to ensure children have access to the books and programming they deserve.

This year’s Gala, taking place on Thursday, May 8, 2025, at the iconic Basketball Hall of Fame, will feature a Swifty-themed evening inspired by Taylor Swift’s celebrated Eras Tour. Guests will enjoy an elegant night filled with cocktails, dinner, an exciting auction, and the opportunity to connect with others passionate about the power of reading to transform lives.

“Every child deserves access to books—both at school and at home—that spark their imagination and inspire a lifelong love of reading,” says Laurie Flynn, President and CEO of Link to Libraries. “The vast majority of books we distribute go to children who have never previously owned a book. With the support of our community, we can continue to deliver impactful programs and bring the joy of literacy to children who need it most.”
