NOVEMBER 6— STILL TIME BROTHER TO SUPPORT THE WHITE PLAINS PUBLIC LIBRARY FOUNDATION AT THE GALA

  Come Together with WPLF to Support the White Plains Public Library!

When neighbors come together, our public library thrives.

Back by popular demand after last year’s unforgettable anniversary celebration, Saturday Night – Live at the Library! returns November 7th, 2026.

Join the White Plains Library Foundation for an electrifying evening featuring special guest:

Jim Windolf

Get ready for a front-row seat to the stories that shaped an era with the legendary editor, acclaimed writer, and author of Where the Music Had to Go, How Bob Dylan and the Beatles Changed Each Other – and the World.

From shaping major cultural narratives at The New York Times and Vanity Fair to chronicling the wildest moments in media history at The New York Observer, Jim has spent decades in the room where pop-culture history happens.

Hear the insider stories behind Come Together revealed live on stage!

“Exquisitely researched, thrilling, and moving… this book was revelatory. I felt as if I were listening for the first time to a riveting story, carefully told in cinematic detail, about the most interesting people on the planet.”
—Rosanne Cash, four-time Grammy Award-winning singer and songwriter

+ Come Together Special Musical Guest:

The Library Jazz Band’s “Little Big Band”

Setting the mood for an unforgettable night, Yonkers’ own Library Jazz Band returns to the stage for an encore performance. Get ready for Westchester’s premier 7-piece powerhouse—featuring saxophones, trumpet, trombone, piano, drums, and bass—to deliver a high octane mix of jazz standards, soulful grooves, and reimagined Beatles and Bob Dylan hits.
