What's Happening in November

Check Out What's Happening at the Library in November:



Art Sale Fundraiser (starts Nov. 6):  
The library is being invaded by polar bears!   Local artist Gloria Stowell has donated a series of her small mixed-media paintings as a library fundraiser.  Proceeds from the sale of these whimsical “On Top of an Iceberg” paintings, featuring polar bears and vibrant colours, will go to our Children’s department.  Come by to enjoy the display of these lovely works of art (and do a little Christmas shopping).  Our thanks to Gloria for this generous donation of her work.
Gloria will also be leading a Brenda Carter Memorial Art Workshop for Kids this month (see below).
