Friends of Murray Library Events

23rd Annual Dinner & Public Program: November 5, 2025

This year's annual dinner and public program will be held on Wednesday, November 5th from 6-8:30 p.m. in Hostetter Chapel, with dinner served by Two Bridges Catering.  Following dinner, we will hold a public program with keynote speaker,  Gregg Behr.  Gregg is an educational champion who hails from Pittsburgh, PA, where he was inspired by the life and work of Mr. Rogers.  In addition to serving as the Executive Director of the Grable Foundation, he is the founder of "Remake Learning", a vibrant and internationally acclaimed ecosystem of educators, artists, scientists, and makers.  Gregg is the co-author of When You Wonder, You're Learning, which is a refreshing read that draws deeply from the legacy of Mr. Rogers' infectious and unrelenting love of neighbors - especially in the sacred work of educating our children.  You won't want to miss this special evening!
