Upcoming Library Events

Sometimes we need a little something special in our crazy, busy days. Even if Valentines Day is the brainchild of a greeting card company, we do need to remind those we love how important they are. What better day to do that very thing than February 14, Valentines Day! Beginning February 11 and extending through the 14th, we’ll have valentine-making supplies out in our meeting room for anyone to make a special card for someone they love. Drop by and let your artistic self shine.
