But, sometimes there are some funny things that, though frustratingly sad, are just ironically funny. 07/13/2023 04:00 AM

ALL TOGETHER NOW
The library’s Summer Reading Program continues for one more week! On Friday at 2 pm, we will all be partaking in some kindergartenlevel snacks, crafts, and silliness, and next Wednesday is our communitywide art project. We are so grateful to the parents and grandparents who have sent snacks for the kids and helped out at the programs. Our new Makerspace has had some visitors lately too; we have helped with a festival vendor’s label printer and provided space for artists to work. Libraries can do so much more than books (though we definitely have plenty of new books, too)! 07/13/2023 04:00 AM
