What's Happening

The recent jewelry robbery at the Louvre has captured global attention. On February 25th at 7:00 PM, mystery authors Connie Berry, Lane Stone, Nina Wachsman, and M. A. Monnin, known as the Curators of Crime, will host a virtual program exploring the theft of Napoleonic jewels. They will discuss the investigation, the psychological motivations behind such crimes, and the historical significance of the jewels. Join them for an insightful evening! Please Register for event.
Join us for a virtual event at 2:00 PM to celebrate the 10th anniversary and revised edition of Randi's book, "Death in Glacier National Park." Since 1913, 260 people have died or are presumed dead in the park. Randi shares gripping stories of tragic mistakes made in the wilderness. Prepare for insightful and humorous anecdotes as you plan your summer adventures! Please Register for the event.
Join us this fall for an 8-week knitting class perfect for beginners and those needing a refresher, starting on February 3rd. You'll learn essential stitches, how to read patterns, and complete a project. Please bring size 5, 6, or 7 straight needles (aluminum or bamboo) and a light-colored mid-weight yarn to the first class. Please register for the class. If you sign up for the eight-week course and find that you are unable to attend several times, we kindly ask that you notify the library. This will allow us to offer your spot to another patron who may be waiting for an opening.

Evening Programs from 6:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.

Here's an exciting lineup of events to mark on your calendar for 2026!   

The Friends of the Library are thrilled to present several standout events this year. 

One of the highlights is an 8-week knitting course that you can register for. If you sign up for any events and find that you are unable to attend, we kindly ask you to notify the library. This will allow us to offer your spot to another patron who may be waiting for an opening. 

One notable event is "What a Glorious Crash They Made," which will feature period-appropriate attire and music from the American Revolution. Join us as we celebrate our 250 years of history with a large turnout!

In addition, there will be programs focused on genealogy and cemetery sleuthing, along with nature programs that include opportunities to meet real animals. To top it all off, we will have well-known outdoor adventure experts, such as Ty Gagne and Michael Wejchert, joining us for an amazing series of programs.

This year promises to be wonderful, so please make time in your schedule to attend. We look forward to seeing everyone there!
