Arts & Writing

The Library is hosting an indoor “drive in” movie, and you are invited!  Join us at 5pm to build and decorate your own cardboard box car. Or join us at 6pm for just the movie.  Cardboard box cars will be given priority seating in the room.  Those coming for just the movie may bring blankets, pillows, and low chairs for their comfort. Popcorn and drinks will be provided. 

Come delight in the spry spirit of Irish dance this St. Patrick's Day in the Library's front reading room!

The group will also perform some crowd favorites, including Lord of the Dance!

Quiet reading space will be provided in the Library meeting room. We apologize for any inconvenience.
