We want to thank everyone who came together for Literary Legends @Home! Whether you were chatting with us on the Zoom call, watching the YouTube livestream, or interacting with the FFAPL on social media, your involvement in Literary Legends @ Home is what made that night truly special!
Thank you and congratulations to Elisa Albert, our 2020 Literary Legend! With her quick wit and infectious spirit, Elisa made the gala a lively occasion. She enthralled us with stories from her life, gave insight to her process as a writer, and left us with a great list of books to read next.
If you missed the gala this year, don’t worry! Follow the link below to watch a recording of the awards ceremony and Q and A session with Elisa Albert.
The Gala Campaign this year has raised over $26,000! Thank you to all of our sponsors, especially Key Bank and the University at Albany Foundation, for your support! Our Literary Legends WiFi Extender Campaign successfully raised $2000 by October 19, enough to pay for one branch. The first branch will be Delaware Ave. Stay tuned for more details. We will continue to collect donations for this campaign until December 1st.
