SUMMARY:Meet a Live Raven!
DESCRIPTION:You would have to be a pretty clever bird to want to hang out at the library! Join us in welcoming Zachariah\, a real live raven\, and the Audubon Society of Rhode Island. In conjunction with our special exhibit Ravenous: The Enduring Legacy of Poe\, the Athenæum is partnering with the Audubon Society of Rhode Island in this interactive children’s program to meet\, greet\, and learn about the true nature of this literary bird. Please join us for an hour of fun and learn just how clever Zachariah and his fellow ravens are! \nFree & all welcome! Ages 8+. Registration is required. \nPlease note: Zachariah may be very clever but he is also rather shy. With that in mind\, we respectfully ask you to please maintain a quiet presence while our feathered friend is on display. Thank you!

SUMMARY:A Midnight Dreary
DESCRIPTION:On January 31st\, the Providence Athenæum will travel back in time to celebrate the life and legacy of Edgar Allan Poe. The entire library will come alive with an array of weird and wonderful attractions including an immersive performance of “The Raven\,” a spiritualist photobooth\, music by Community MusicWorks\, a visit from Providence Ghost Tours\, and themed cocktails. Party like it’s 1848 in the very building where Poe visited\, read\, and courted his fiancée Sarah Helen Whitman before their dramatic break-up. Proceeds from this evening will directly benefit the Athenæum’s collections\, programs\, and historic home. \n21+ event. Open bar & hors d’oeuvres served. Event will take place on both levels of the building. Dark/gothic/Victorian/cocktail attire welcome. \nThis event serves as the opening of the major exhibition Ravenous: The Enduring Legacy of Poe\, on view through April 2019. Showcasing the Athenæum’s extensive collection of Poe-mania\, the exhibit also will display incredible items from Brown University’s John Hay Library (including a lock of Poe’s own hair) and from the world-renowned Susan Jaffe Tane Collection of Edgar Allan Poe (featuring objects from a first edition of “The Raven” to a Poe-themed skateboard). \nEvent sponsors will be invited to a VIP reception preceding the main celebration from 6-7pm in the Reading Room and Philbrick Rare Book Room for the premier viewing of the Ravenous exhibition\, a champagne toast\, and remarks from Susan Jaffe Tane\, the foremost private Poe collector in the world. \nTickets are limited\, and we expect to sell out quickly!
