Mrs. Brown and Miss Lisa will video record a short storytime with an accompanying art activity.

Families of preschoolers can pick up a TAKE & MAKE BAG at the library each week. The bag will include the storytime thematic art activity of the week. Each week’s bags will be at the library from Tuesday-Saturday of that week.

Nonfiction Book Discussion
Join us at 7 p.m., Monday Sept. 14, for a virtual discussion on “In the Garden of Beasts” by Erik Larson. A remarkable story set during Hitler’s rise to power. This is a stunning, eyewitness perspective on events as they unfold in real time, revealing an era of surprising nuance and complexity. The result is a dazzling, addictively readable work that speaks volumes about why the world did not recognize the grave threat posed by Hitler until Berlin, and Europe, were awash in blood and terror.
