Happy Summer! We've made it to Summer Reading and we couldn't be more excited!
Summer is almost here, and so is summer reading! Join us this month as we kick off our exciting summer reading program with a fantastic array of events and programs. Our theme this year is "Color Our World," and we're eager to start painting our summer with stories and adventures!
If you want to look as cool as us and show your love for summer reading, you can order your very own! Use this link to fill out the form to order one! Order Summer Reading Shirts Here!
Also…In conjunction with the Lakes Region Art Association Gallery in Tilton, we are thinking about offering a six week watercolor painting class for patrons that are interested. No experience with watercolors is necessary. In order to gauge community interest, please take a few minutes to fill out a short survey at this link!
