Thanks to all who came to last week's HONKfest at Walker Library! Wasn't the response terrific??? Minnesotans, honking like they'd never honked before.... They really do care about their public libraries. Tonight is the official New Library Referendum Campaign Kick-Off. Join Citizens for Minneapolis Public Libraries as we rally support and honks from the public sidewalks in front of Central Library, on Hennepin Avenue between 3rd and 4th Streets, from 4:30 - 6:30pm. Inexpensive parking is available in lots and ramps all around the Library and most downtown meters are free after 6:00 pm. "Harry Potter" will be on hand to help the Library make headlines! Then at 7pm in Heritage Hall Auditorium join these library supporters as they read from their favorite books and rally support for the New Library Referendum. Don't forget to forward this message to your friends & colleagues. See you tonight! * Mayor Sharon Sayles Belton * Joan Mondale, arts advocate * Baby Grant Johnson, musician * Wing Young Huie, "Lake Street USA" photographer * Pamela Hill Nettleton, writer and Minnesota Monthly editor * Jackie Cherryhomes, City Council President * and Scott Novotny, renowned comedian * Emcee: sports personality Trent Tucker
