Summer is in full swing here at the Library! Our Summer Reading program is for all ages and we have lots of entries for prizes. Are you reading up a storm? Taking a bunch of books on vacation with you? Be sure to have everyone in the family enter to win, there is no limit to how many submissions you can do! Kids through 12th grade have until August 5th to submit for raffle tickets, and adults have until August 31st.

The Opening Ceremony of the Tokyo Olympics was beautiful. During the next two weeks, we will host Teen Olympics, with competitions held Tuesday and Thursday afternoons outside on the Lawn. For the younger set, we continue our long-time partnership with the AMF&S during Tunes and Tales on Tuesday mornings under the new tent. 

Upcoming workshops include book-plate-making with a table-top Letterpress, intro to Bookbinding, and our on-going Tai Chi class (Sunday mornings before the Market). You might want to join the Yarn Group, meeting on the first Tuesday evening of the month, or our Book Club, which meets the first Wednesday of the month. And our next Drive In Movie on Saturday August 7th is The Wizard of Oz!

The first week of August will feature three special community events. 
  • Tuesday August 3, we invite you to Meet and Greet the two candidates for the Library’s Executive Director. We hope you will participate to help the Board make this important decision.  
  • Wednesday, August 4, the Town of Basalt hosts Basalt Forward 2030, a plan that seeks to identify and prioritize capital projects for funding through a potential property tax extension. Come and chat with your Town Council, Capital Needs Committee and Town staff to discuss the future of our town. 
  • Thursday, August 5, an afternoon of Music and Art at the Library! The library hosts a reception for watercolor artists Missy Prudden and Laurie McBride, currently showing their masterful works in the Lobby Gallery and in the Central Library Room. Music Outside the Library then hosts the AMF&S Concert Truck, in the first of two concerts out on our Lawn. Bring a chair or blanket and celebrate the talented artists and musicians of our community. 
    ​
There is plenty more to keep you busy for the rest of the summer! Please visit the Calendar of Events for more information and specific details. We look forward to seeing you around the library!
