Workshops and Programs for Adults

We have a few special things for adults this December. including our Make Your Own Simple Swag program on Saturday, December 7th, 1:00-2:00. Use some fresh evergreens and decorations to create beautiful swags for door frames, mantles, or windows. Cherie Knight will provide the greens and decorations, as well as decorating ideas for your holiday season. Registration requested, either through the form below, at our Main Circulation Desk, or by calling 647-2472.

We also have some To-Go bags by the Main Circulation Desk, while supplies last. We have “Kitchen: Soup-Ready Seasonings” To Go all ready packed up. Make yourself something lovely as the weather gets colder… these Soup-Ready Seasonings are perfect for your favorite soup or other things as well. Try them in dips, sprinkled (lightly) on steaming veggies, or on olive oil for a great bread dipping experience.

We will have “Craft: Decorate Gift Bags” To-Go kits ready by Friday December 6th, we are waiting for a few supplies. Get creative and festive with your gift-giving this year. We get you started with some different-sized paper gift bags, paints, and sponge shapes. Have a great time being a little crafty.

Enjoy the Season!

With the holiday season upon us and winter settling in, it’s a great time to come in to the Library. We have current bestsellers and time-tested classics to keep you entertained, cook- and craft-books for decorating and entertaining ideas, and of course friendly faces behind the circulation desks. We will be getting a new batch of audio books and DVDs in December for your listening and viewing pleasure. 

Please remember the Friends Book Rack for holiday gift giving. The Friends of the Bridgton Library also have book bags, mugs, and pens available for sale. All proceeds benefit the Bridgton Public Library and fund our programs and workshops.

We will be accepting book donations through December 31, 2019 and will resume March 1st, 2020. We appreciate all items donated, but do not have the space to store them in the Library during the winter.

Our “Of Interest” section by the Main Circulation Desk has a different theme each month. Miss Anita puts in a lot of care to creating the lists, and pulls some of the best books from our stacks and puts them together for your browsing pleasure. This month’s list is here:
