Let's Wrap up Winter and move on to Spring!

I'm sure that you have all had your fill of this crazy winter weather we've been experiencing!  I won't bore you with more talk about icy road conditions, frigid wind chill temperatures, or historic snow falls.  Instead, I'd like to tell you all about some awesome upcoming adult and family library programs.  We've got it all-- from Bigfoot to book club-- and so much more.


This Thursday, (February 20th at 7 p.m.) you can come to the library and Experience Bigfoot with the folks from the Indiana Bigfoot Research Organization.  They will present some of the facts and fiction surrounding Bigfoot, and will bring pictures, foot castings and other fascinating items of interest.  This will be an interesting evening for all, I am sure!

The dynamic duo that is Traveler's Dream will be on hand (Thursday, March 6th at 7 p.m.) to share some tunes that will bring a spring to your step!   With their powerful voices and a wide variety of traditional and modern instruments, Michael Lewis and Denise Wilson will captivate you with some spirited songs from the British Isles and French Canada along with some hard-driving Irish jigs and reels.  We can't to share this exciting musical event with you!

On Saturday, March 15th at our Monrovia Branch, artist Rick Wilson will be teaching a Still Life Painting Workshop for adults and teens over the age of 16.  Participants will learn the basics of still life composition along with tips and techniques for painting from real life along with information about the life and work of Indiana artist T.C. Steel.  Funding for this wonderful program is made possible by a grant from the Indiana Arts Commission.  Space is limited, and the workshop is currently full-- but you could add your name to the waiting list if you are interested.

If you would like to see all of the events we have planned for the months ahead, please visit our Event Calendar.


Happy Reading,

Jennifer
