We’re so sorry to have to bid farewell to summer but we’re definitely looking forward to the return of some of our special events.

Our Annual Local Art Exhibit & Sale will be held September 20th & 21st. Take a stroll through the library in the evening light as it’s turned into a gallery for the works of art by local artists, adorned with floral arrangements by the Vincentown Garden Club. Following your tour of the exhibit on Friday evening, join us next door for refreshments.

Other events…

This month we’ll begin our Third Thursday Story/Art sessions for kids over age 4 – September 19th at 2 pm. Please give us a call if you’re planning to attend.

Summer’s almost over and we’re ALL excited about the new school year!

Today, Thursday, August 29th, we’ll start the morning in the Children’s Library with Toddler Time at 11 am.

We’ll be getting ready with a back to school project at our Thursday afternoon art session (2 pm) by personalizing a notebook. This collage project could get messy so be sure to bring a cover up or wear old clothes.

Following our Thursday Art session we invite everyone to stay for Legos and games (and snacks!).

We’re sad to see summer end but look forward to our Annual Art Show & Sale, September 20th & 21st.
