Only 125 of these special anniversary cards will be available to purchase for $125 each. Each card will remain valid for 125 years, until the library's 250th anniversary!

Thanks to the Friends of the Conway Public Library, we now have new seasonal museum passes available for the Mount Washington Observatory, Mount Washington Cog Railway, and Mount Washington Auto Road.

Friends of the Conway Public Library Program Series

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! We have added several virtual programs to celebrate America's 250th on Monday evenings from June to July. Grab a brochure at the front desk. 

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!
