The Friends of the Shepherdstown Library (FOSL) will hold their sixth annual “Left of the Bank” music and poetry evening on Friday, April 9.

All the event’s proceeds will fund programs at the Library.

Left of the Bank will feature local musicians and poets, showcasing their talents in a setting that recreates the atmosphere of an intimate 1930s to 1960s urban coffee house.

Coffee, tea, and wine will be served, along with tempting desserts and tantalizing appetizers.

The event will take place at “Casa Carlos e Isabel,” the home of Carlos Niederhauser and Liz Wheeler, at 202 South Princess Street (the old school-bus garage building with the purple roof). Liz’s World Famous Guacamole will be one of the featured foods.

Doors will open at 7 p.m. The program will start at 7:30 p.m.

Tickets to the benefit will cost $35. Contributions over and above that amount will be welcome to provide additional support for the library. Anyone giving $100 or more will be listed as a program sponsor.

The tickets will be available at the Library in early March.
