Get ready to LOL. Taste That! The County’s Artisanal Comedy Troupe and The Frere Brothers are teaming up for one night only on Sunday, October 27th from 7 to 9 pm. Picton Library stacks are going to roll with laughter and library love.
The hilarious Taste That! crew and Jack Frere, Sonny Lematina and Ding Dang Dong aka The Frere Brothers are lending their side-splitting talents to “Comedy Night At the Library”, the second annual Picton Library fundraiser, held after hours in the historic Carnegie building on Main St, Picton.
It’s a not-to-be-missed night of laughter and community! Featuring wine from Casa-Dea Estates Winery and cider from Crimson Cider Company, guests will also enjoy tasty locally made snacks and desserts.
Local artist Milé Murtanovski of Small Pond Arts created the distinctive Comedy Night illustrations. “The mysteriously-glowing library and red carpet imply a very special event,” shares Milé. Barbara Sweet, CEO, County of Prince Edward Public Library notes, “For a second year, Milé has donated his services to support fundraising activities for the renovation and expansion of Picton Library. We’re grateful to Milé for his generous contribution.”
