LAUGH WITH THE LIBRARY
WHAT: The Delray Beach Public Library’s annual Laugh with the Library returned this year on Feb. 25 for a night of laughter, cocktails and supper-by-thebite. Headlining this year’s event was comedian Pat McGann, a rising star in the world of standup comedy who has toured with comedic juggernaut Sebastian Maniscalco. Delray Beach Public Library Board Secretary Chiara Clark chaired the festivities along with Alissa Sklaver Rabin.

A total of 1,000 attendees were treated to four-course meals and first-rate service. Restaurants also competed for the coveted “Best in Show” award in terms of lavish table decor, with first place once again going to Salt 7 for its “Golden Girls” themed table.
