Party in Place Finale
SAT | Jun 20 | 6 PM | Zoom
We'll hear from our Party in Place Co-Chairs — local celebs with industry ideas — on what to eat, drink, wear, and listen to before we party in place with Paige Turner, cousin to Lawrence's favorite queen, Deja Brooks.
On Saturday, we'll pull on our favorite sweats (or best party tops if you hope to win a prize) and join Paige as she dishes out clever chitchat and prizes for best attire, best virtual Zoom background, and other fabulous feats!
Follow us on Facebook, search events for book sales, and sign up for an alert when we go live.
