Spend an evening with Patrick Bringley, New York Times bestselling author of All the Beauty in the World, as part of Sarasota County Libraries’ One Book One Community program.
Bringley’s memoir chronicles his decade working as a museum guard at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, blending art, personal reflection and human connection. The book received widespread acclaim and was named one of the best books of the year by the New York Public Library (Audible) and The Sunday Times (London). It has since become an international bestseller.
The program includes an author talk followed by a book signing. Books will be available for purchase. Parking information will be available at SarasotaCountyLibraries.org/OneBook.
