2024 Fundraising Event: Red, Wine, and Blue

Come join us to watch the City fireworks on the 4th of July and be a Star Spangled Supporter of the library!

The Riverside Public Library Foundation is holding our 2024 fundraising event, “Red, Wine, and Blue”, on Thursday, July 4th, 2024, from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. on the Terrace at the Main Library, 3900 Mission Inn Avenue Riverside, CA 92501.

We are planning a fun, casual evening on the Main Library Terrace with its stunning views of the fireworks from Mt. Rubidoux. Wine, beer, appetizers, and dessert will be included with raffles for fine wine, plants, and special items.

Funds raised will support this year’s theme, “The Library Is What to Do After School,” to sponsor programs and resources for the children of Riverside at all eight branches in the city.

SPACE IS LIMITED for this event.  Reservations are $150 per person.  Be sure to select “July 4th Fundraiser” on the Donation page and enter the names of attendees in the Special Instructions box.  

Thank you for your consideration. We look forward to your support so we can increase and sustain the library programs and opportunities for all of Riverside’s citizens, especially the children.
