“Before You Purchase Tickets!

IMPORTANT: In order for you to be ready for an ICONIC night, you’ll need to be a Friend of the Rye Free Reading Room. Tickets for Novel Night are exclusively available to Friends at any level. Being a Friend of the library means you have donated to the Annual Campaign within the past year.

If you will be purchasing Sponsorship packages, this will automatically include a Friend membership.

Please click here to confirm your Friend status. Friends will have an active membership in one of the following categories: Bibliophile, Curator, Scholar, Sponsor, Patron, Reader, or Supporter. If you have trouble logging in, or have questions about your Friend status, please email us at friends@ryelibrary.org. If you are NOT a Friend, you can become a Friend of the Rye Free Reading Room by making a donation at any level to the Annual Campaign here.

Being a Friend of the Rye Free Reading Room means you are supporting the library’s extensive programs and collections of books, audiovisual and other materials, and makes you eligible to attend the Annual Meeting of the Rye Free Reading Room and vote for its Trustees. In addition to access to Novel Night tickets, Friends get the chance to attend author meet and greets, early access to the library book sale, fee-free art exhibits, reduced price meeting room rentals for meetings/parties, access to Casino Night tickets, and invitations to special Friends only events.

If you have any questions, please email us at novelnight@ryelibrary.org.
