Free Library Hosts Barcentric Author Event Tonight

The Free Library of Philadelphia’s central branch is hosting a barcentric author event tonight as part of an attempt to attract an underserved demographic: young adults who have graduated from college but do not yet have children.

The free event features Philadelphia Weekly writer Brian McManus, author of Philadelphia’s Best Dive Bars: Drinking and Diving in the City of Brotherly Love and The Regulars author-photographer Sarah Stolfa, who assembled the book of portraits after tending bar at McGlinchey’s for ten years.
