Biblio Bash 2018

In support of Toronto Public Library

On April 26, the Toronto Reference Library was once again transformed into a glamorous black-tie gala for Biblio Bash, presented by TD Bank Group. The Toronto Public Library (TPL) is proud to connect many new families in Canada with their Chinese collections and multicultural programs in person and online. Bringing together 43 of Canada’s top authors, local philanthropists, entrepreneurs and arts and culture supporters, the evening raised more than $692,000 through ticket and table sales, a silent auction and onsite donations. Money raised will help support TPL programs and services. Each table featured a Canadian author host, including notables such as Giller Prize winners Michael Redhill, Esi Edugyan, and Shari Lapena.
