All that Jazz!
 
 
We hope you will join us for another Second Saturday concert, this time featuring Sirocco Jazz! Make sure to get here for the show on Saturday December 14th, at 630pm!

Also, as we hit the midpoint of the school year, students looking to enter college should take advantage of our SAT Practice exam on December 20th! Register now - these usually fill up fast!

This Thursday, December 11th at 3pm you can learn how to make delicious Non-Alcoholic Holiday Drinks to keep things festive (but not TOO festive) over the holiday season. Register now and learn how to spice up your holiday concoctions.

Stay warm and stay well!

Regards,
Darren Miguez, Library Director
