Reading Rhythms x Jersey City Public Library : A Taste of Jersey City

Jersey City loves its stories—on the page, in the streets, and around the dinner table. This isn’t just another book event. It’s a celebration of what makes this city one-of-a-kind: community, creativity, and a deep love of reading.

For one night only, the Jersey City Public Library is hosting a special edition of Reading Rhythms as part of Welcome Back Library Week. Readers of all kinds are invited to grab a book, settle in, and experience the library in a whole new way.

Get your hands on the limited-edition Jersey City Public Library merchandise designed by local artist Kiki Buccini ()—only available at this event. While you’re here, sign up for a library membership, meet other book lovers, and enjoy a taste of the city with local vendors providing food and drinks.

This is the kind of night where you might discover your next favorite book, strike up a conversation with someone who shares your taste in stories, or walk away with a unique library experience that you'll never forget!
