Summer Gazebo Reading Series
It is with great pride and enthusiasm that the Kiwanis Club of Oceanside,
in conjunction with Oceanside Education Foundation, announces the
Third Annual Summer Gazebo Reading Series
The Summer Gazebo Readings Series began in 2007.
Created and run each year by Oceanside Kiwanian, Tony Iovino, the series has grown exponentially to become a premiere summer-long event on Long Island.
All funds raised by the program benefit the Oceanside Education Foundation
and help send underprivileged kids to Kamp Kiwanis.
To find out how to become a sponsor, please visit Tony's blog.
The Gazebo Readings begin at 7 pm every Monday night in June, July & August.
Four readers are featured each evening.
Scheduled readers include some of Long Island's most prestigious poets,
published authors, comedians and fiction & non-fiction writers
& community members sharing some of their favorite literature.
The Summer Gazebo Readings is held outdoors.
Seating is limited, so bring a lawn chair or blanket.
The grounds are open and the public is encouraged to come early
to enjoy a quiet summer's evening picnic on the Green!
FREE ADMISSION!
