Summer in the Courtyard

Summer in the Courtyard
Summer is finally here in the Lakes Region, and there’s no better place to enjoy the warm sunshine than right here at Bridgton Public Library.
 
As the days grow longer, we invite you to take advantage of our free public Wi-Fi from the comfort of our courtyard. Whether you’re catching up on emails, working remotely, studying, reading, or simply browsing while enjoying the fresh spring air, our patio offers a peaceful and welcoming space to settle in.
 
We are endlessly grateful for the many hands who have made this space possible, to our volunteers, Friends of the Library, and dedicated Trustees, the creation of this space was a labor of love from our committed thought partners. So come and enjoy, bring your laptop, your latest library find, or simply yourself. Listen to the birdsong, soak in the sunshine, and enjoy a quiet moment surrounded by the beauty of the season. It’s the perfect spot to connect, create, and reflect on the power of what coming together as a community can accomplish.
 
At Bridgton Public Library, we’re proud to offer spaces both inside and out where our community can gather, learn, and enjoy all that the season has to offer.
 
We hope you’ll join us on the courtyard this season!

Natural Dye Workshop Highlight

Last month, we had a wonderful Natural Dye Workshop hosted by Ray here at the library. Participants learned the art of natural dyeing and explored their creativity by making their own unique pieces. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the program such a meaningful and colorful experience.
 
If you didn’t get a chance to attend and you’re inspired and or you did and would like to explore this at home, we have some great books available to help you learn more. Ray has selected a variety of titles to guide you further into the world of natural dyes and fiber arts. Stop by the library to browse the collection and check out a book to take home.
 
We’d also love to see what you create! Share photos of your projects with us at publicity@bridgtonlibrary.org for a chance to be featured on our social media pages.
 
We can’t wait to see your work!
