Museum passes
Have you had a chance to check out our attraction passes yet? The Friends of the Library have generously donated the funds to purchase two attraction passes, to both The Fairbanks Museum and to VINS . Did you know that the planetarium at the Fairbanks is the only public planetarium in Vermont and that there is a new songbird aviary at VINS that some patrons have said is spectacular? We also have a pass to the ECHO museum, which has been a gift to all of the libraries in Vermont for several years now. These destinations make excellent daytrips and we hope that they will see a lot of use this summer. *The artwork featured here is from Betsy Smith and Diana Clegg Brown and is on display at VINS through the end of the month.

Cards for a Cause
The Friends of the Library have a brand new fundraiser-- a set of 6 blank cards for $12. Buy one for yourself, and maybe a set for a friend as a holiday gift or housewarming present. They make delightful thank you cards or “I've been thinking of you” notes. It's always a good time to send a handwritten card to someone you haven't seen in awhile. The flowers featured in the card are the perfect antidote to our grey weather. 
Birding at the Library
Did you know that we've got a great display of bird books featured this month? And did you also know that we've got 18 birds hidden all over the library-- all shapes and sizes. We invite you to come in and look for them; find at least half to be entered into a raffle for a prize. This discovery hunt is for all ages. |
This month's Take & Make
*a bounty of butterflies* This month we'll have a stack of colorful paper on hand and you can come and punch out enough butterflies for a fun project. Maybe you'll have them stuck in unexpected places around the house (We've done there here and it looks very festive.) Maybe think about making your own butterfly mobile, I think these are so beautiful and very inspirational. You might also try your hand at origami butterflies. We've got paper for that too... If you just want to run in and grab a few butterflies to take with you, there will be a stack for you to choose from. Limit 20 pre-made butterflies per patron. PS. No a grouping of butterflies is not a bounty. Rather they are referred to as a: flight, flutter, kaleidoscope, & rabble. Amazing facts to share with friends ;) |
