Luminaries

In August 2020, Friends of the Truckee Library launched our LibraryUP Luminaries campaign with two clear goals:

  • Raise the seed funding necessary to conduct the architectural, site, environmental, and development work leading up to the construction of a new library.

  • Dramatically demonstrate the level of community-wide support for a new library in Truckee.

And thanks to the passion of over 250 individuals and 38 businesses who share our vision for a new library in our community and have invested in it, we've successfully achieved these goals!

Thank you to our Luminaries!

On October 1st, we concluded the Luminaries campaign because we have achieved our goals, together.

And although the Luminaries campaign has ended, we want to make something crystal clear—once you are a Luminary, you will always be a Luminary! We eagerly anticipate continuing this story together, and can't wait to see the special Luminaries art commission at our new library!

While the Luminaries campaign has ended, there is still a lot of work to be done to build our new library. Please consider continuing to support the Friends of the Truckee Library through a recurring monthly donation.
