A Novel Affair is April 11, 2024!


We are delighted to honor Steven Frederick and the law firm of Wofsey, Rosen, Kweskin & Kuriansky, LLP for their service to the library and the Stamford community. 

A Novel Affair is our major fundraiser, and the dollars raised go to support vital programs and services, such as job skills training, English language learning, children's early literacy programs and  events such as author programs that bring the community together.
