YPG CARES: *Rogue* World Book Night Giveaway
World Book Night (WBN) is a super fun, global effort for book lovers like us to spread the joy of reading by giving away books. While the US’s official partnership with WBN ended in 2014, we at YPG have continued the tradition! This year, we are again having our very own ROUGE World Book Night, flash mob style! Join your fellow book lovers on the front steps of the New York Public Library by Bryant Park on the annual WBN date, Saturday, April 23, to participate in one of the best experiences you’ll have all year!
TO JOIN THE GIVEAWAY: Start collecting books NOW so you have about 20 prepared to pitch and give-away to passersby, flash mob style, on Saturday, April 23. If you can’t get 20 books, no worries–just bring what you have. (It goes without saying to please not take anything from your company without permission to use it in a giveaway, so we recommend you start with your own personal bookshelf, but we trust your judgment!)
WHEN & WHERE: Meet us on the front steps of the New York Public Library (5th Avenue and 42nd St.) on Saturday, April 23, at 3:30pm sharp with your books in tow. We will then start giving out books to passersby in and around Bryant Park, for no reason beyond the joy of sharing the love of reading, person to person!
AFTERWARDS: There will be a happy hour celebration at 5:00pm after the giveaway ends! Anyone who has given away books or anyone who just wants to join the party should come! Location is TBD and will be close by.
This promises to be the best give-away ever, so if you’ve participated in WBN before, have always wanted to, or just love books and flash mobs, join us! Invite your friends, industry or not, to bring their books as well. PLEASE RSVP HERE, and email Laura Biagi at lbiagi@jvnla.com with any questions.
