Press Release Fun – The ABC of It: Curator Leonard S. Marcus in Conversation

October 8, 2013 by Betsy Bird   Leave a Comment

If you have visited NYC in the last few months and failed to take a gander at the children’s literature exhibit currently going on in the main branch, this is a bad thing.  Fortunately, we’re going to bring the exhibit to you, in a sense.  A Google Hangout is being planned for this Saturday’s Literary Salon.  So even if you can’t make it yourself you’ll be able to see our esteemed curator talk about it.  The link for the Hangout will be: https://plus.google.com/events/cd7difagbpt2makm7jhqbbhq734

NYPL’s Children’s Literary Salon is pleased to announce our event on Saturday, October 12th at 2:00 p.m.

The ABC of It: Curator Leonard S. Marcus in Conversation

Join Bank Street’s Center for Children’s Literature, Interim Director Jenny Brown as she interviews historian and critic Leonard S. Marcus about his current NYPL exhibit and the importance of children’s literature as a whole.

This event will be held in the South Court Auditorium in the main branch of New York Public Library (42nd Street & 5th Avenue – big stone lions out front).
