Procrastinate no more! There is an informal gathering in the large meeting room on Thursday mornings from 10am-12pm of artisans committed to finishing up painting or crafts. You’ll have a chance to socialize and get some of those projects completed. No registration is necessary; just bring your own materials.
Do you need a quiet place to settle into your studies? We have earmarked a room for teens on Thursday evenings at 6:30pm so you can prepare for exams, do homework, or reel yourself into your work. Try “Teen Focus” this month on the 24th. If you need a second pair of eyes for a paper or a listening ear for a presentation, the teen librarian will be available for an hour or so. Or, just come in to the teen room for studying in general. Come in to focus.
Want a little lip-smacking fun? Waffling about what to do on a Friday night? On Friday, March 25, in lieu of ‘Read & Feed Story Time’ we’ll be celebrating ‘International Waffle Day’! Learn about these tasty treats, and eat one with your own special topping. Registration is absolutely required for this activity, and it’s specially designed for ages 4-10. Get your registration in and your lips ready!
Mark the date and time (April 6 at 7pm) for an author visit and book signing. Author, Alfred Zappala, is a dual American-Italian citizen who lives in Lawrence, MA. His book 'The Reverse Immigrant: Return to my Sicilian Roots' is a love story. The object of love, however, is not a person. He loves an island, Sicily, or perhaps better his idea of the island....he was not born there. His connections to the island come by way of both grandparents who hailed from Trecastagni, a village on the slopes of Mt. Etna, as well as by an affinity for everything Sicilian. Yet his love for the island is such that in his maturity he as decided to leave his native Lawrence, MA and become a reverse immigrant by moving to Sicily on the slopes of majestic Mt. Etna. Zappala holds a law degree and teaches at prominent law schools in Boston. He has authored several books on the bar examination and a screenplay. Don’t miss out.
