On Friday evening , October 30th, over 150 guests filled the library after hours.  They enjoyed performances by actors from the Hovey Players based on Poe’s writings, were treated to food and wine, and entered raffles for prizes from over 50 merchants, individuals and organizations.

The Cask of Amontillado

Thanks to all who attended and made the event so successful.  Special thanks to Ronni Marshak and everyone from the Hovey Players, who donated their time and talented energies;  Karen and Tom Condor, who conceived the idea for the evening and donated countless hours to ensuring everything ran smoothly; the culinary program at Waltham High School who received high praise for the catering; Vanessa Hargrove and Lela Chiavaras for organizing the raffle; the Waltham Garden Club for the flower arrangements; and the dozens of Friends and staff who donated their time (and desserts).
