Event information

The Society of the Arts (SOTA) proudly presents its eleventh annual fundraising event Luncheon with the Authors on October 10, 2024. The event will be held at Renaissance Hotel Allentown.

​Three nationally-acclaimed authors will share remarks, participate in a panel discussion, and sign books for attendees.

​This year, we are also offering an exciting opportunity to meet the authors in a more intimate event during Cocktails with the Authors which will take place the night before our traditional Luncheon on October 9th. The event will be hosted at the Allentown Art Museum and offers attendees the opportunity to converse with the authors one-on-one over cocktails. The event will also include a docent tour of the Museum.

SOTA's Luncheon with the Authors gives the public an excellent opportunity to participate in an engaging discussion by three authors about their books, meet and speak personally with them, and pose questions during the panel discussion.

​The SOTA “Luncheon With The Authors” Committee members spend months reading more than one dozen books before deciding on the three authors, basing their choices not only on the authors' storytelling abilities, but also on how they would be as a panelist in providing a lively discussion with the event attendees.

​Luncheon With The Authors benefits educational programs at the Allentown Art Museum, the SOTA Print Fund and the SOTA Education Endowment. Books purchased through SOTA also benefit the Allentown Art Museum.
