Join The Raven Society, Philadelphia’s premier young professional group of literacy lovers and curiosity connoisseurs, for a celebration of Edgar Allan Poe's 216th birthday!

Step into an evening of intrigue and revelry with heavy hors d’oeuvres, complimentary cocktails, and a touch of the mysterious. Don your moodiest party attire (think dark romance with a hint of drama) and prepare for a night inspired by Poe’s haunting legacy, where the line between reality and the macabre blurs. All proceeds go to supporting the Free Library of Philadelphia’s mission to advance literacy, guide learning, and inspire curiosity for Philadelphians of all ages.
