Meet the staff and the supporters of the planned Hunters Point library at this free celebration at restaurant Manducatis Rustica.

The new $28 million Queens Library at Hunters Point is slated to open in 2015, but the volunteer group Friends of Hunters Point Library's fundraising event will support future programming and services.

Light refreshments will be served.

For more information on joining the Friends of Hunters Point Library or to join them, call Camille Barrett at 718-990-8583, or visit www.queenslibraryfoundation.org.
