California State Library’s NEW Food for Thought event Sept 25

The California State Library’s new monthly cultural event, Food for Thought: Thinking and Talking at the California State Library, an intellectually stimulating evening complete with food and wine, kicks-off September 25th .

With Food for Thought the State Library offers an after-hours forum for playing out ideas. The free kick-off Food for Thought is a big-screen showing of a provocative film which is rated "R" that shows a world we don’t want, a world without critical thought, without knowledge, without libraries. The evening includes a wine and appetizer reception generously sponsored by the California State Library Foundation, welcoming remarks from the State Librarian and the Executive Director of the California State Library Foundation, and a post-movie facilitated discussion among audience members.
 
Food for Thought will be held from 5:30 to 8:30 pm in historic Room 500 on the 5th floor of the Stanley Mosk Library and Courts Building at 914 Capitol Mall in Sacramento. Doors open at 5:30.  The movie shows at 6:00 with time for discussion afterward.  Metered parking is free after 6:00 pm and the event is 2 blocks from Regional Transit.

Space is limited.  Please RSVP to akwong@library.ca.gov to ensure a seat.
