About this Event
P&T Knitwear is pleased to welcome Betsy Rubiner to celebrate and discuss her new book, ; a spirited exploration of the diary, from pen-and-paper to TikTok, for the people who write—and read—them.
Betsy will be joined in conversation by Leslie Yazel. Along with a discussion and audience Q&A, Betsy will also sign copies of her book.
Both tickets and books are available on eventbrite and at the door.
