Reese, author of Gather: Black Food, Nourishment, and the Art of Togetherness. The event will be hosted by Tone Hollywood of 100.5 The Vibe.
Guests can arrive early at 6:00 PM to enjoy an interactive community activation presented by Hampton Roads Transit (HRT) and goCommute, explore The Stacks, a curated literary marketplace featuring local authors, artists, and artisans, and enjoy a dynamic menu by Twist Martini Bar & Associates inspired by Black culinary traditions.
Doors open at 7:00 PM. Tickets are $45 and include one drink ticket. A portion of proceeds benefits the Virginia Beach Library Foundation, supporting literacy, lifelong learning, and community engagement.
Whether you're a music lover, book enthusiast, or simply looking for a unique night out, Read Between the Vibes offers an immersive celebration of creativity, storytelling, and connection in the heart of Virginia Beach.
