We are very excited to be hosting this event sponsored by the Maine Humanities Council. Due to the heat and predicted thunderstorms this evening we will be having our event inside in the Main Reading Room. Currently, our COVID19 Community Level risk is Low, so wear a mask based on your personal preference, informed by your personal level of risk. As we are unable to gather in the courtyard due to weather we will offer a zoom link for those who are not comfortable gathering inside. Please let us know by sending an email to bplreference@bridgton.lib.me.us if that’s what you prefer, and we will send you a link by 4:00 pm.
 
Bridgton Books will be here with books available for purchase and Phuc will be bringing a one-of-a-kind stamp for “signing” books, whether you bring in your own copy or purchase one at the event. There will be a reading and a question and answer period. We look forward to seeing you all soon.

July Community Swap

July Community Swap

It’s time for the Bridgton Public Libraries community swap and this month’s theme is arts and craft supplies. Have some paint brushes you haven’t used in a while, some old sketchbooks with blank pages still, or maybe you’ve been meaning to de-stash sewing or knitting supplies. Here is a way to give them a second life and help someone add to their supplies. We’ll be hosting our swaps on July 2nd and 9th from 10-2 PM and you can also enjoy artists in the courtyard July 8th for Bridgton’s Second Saturday Art Walk. In the event of rain, the swap will be held off until weather improves, or we will wait till the following swap date.
