In a delightful fusion of literary and gourmet indulgence, the Friends of the Delaware County District Library are rolling out the red carpet for an event that promises to be a highlight. Set against the backdrop of the vibrant Columbus North Market, this gathering is not just an event but a celebration of stories, flavors, and community spirit. On Thursday, April 4 from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM, bibliophiles and ice cream aficionados alike are invited to an Ice Cream Social Media event featuring none other than Zibby Owens, a luminary in the literary world.

Meet Zibby Owens: An Inspiring Literary Force

Zibby Owens is not just a name but a brand synonymous with literary excellence and insightful commentary on life. As an author, podcaster, publisher, and book influencer, Zibby has carved a niche for herself in the hearts of readers and listeners across the globe. Her debut novel, “Blank,” explores the intricacies of marriage, motherhood, and the quest for purpose. “Bookends: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Literature” offers a poignant look at life’s trials and triumphs through the lens of literature. And for the younger audience, “Princess Charming” brings a fresh perspective to the world of children’s books.

Zibby’s influence extends beyond the written word. As the creator and host of the award-winning daily podcast “Moms Don’t Have Time to Read Books,” she brings authors and stories into the homes and hearts of thousands, earning her the title of “NYC’s Most Powerful Book-fluencer.” Her entrepreneurial spirit shines through Zibby Media, which encompasses Zibby Books, Zibby Mag, Zibby’s Book Club, and even a bookstore in Santa Monica, California.

Ice Cream and Insights

This unique Ice Cream Social Media event, set amidst the historical charm of Columbus’ Short North at the Columbus North Market, invites attendees to a relaxed and engaging afternoon. The event is a fantastic opportunity not only to meet Zibby Owens in person but also to mingle with fellow literature enthusiasts. And what better way to add a dash of sweetness to the day than with a treat from Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream, a name that stands for quality and creativity in the world of frozen desserts?

For a ticket price of $7.50 plus a processing fee, participants will enjoy a Street Treat from Jeni’s, with Friends of the Delaware County District Library members benefiting from a $2 discount.
