Wee knits with Alissa and Stephanie
November 19th at 2pm at the Library
Ever felt a strong need to knit tiny wreaths, elves and gingerbreadpeople? We know that not everyone understands! Join us for tea and cookies while you work on your holiday decorations. We have materials and instructions, but you will need to know the basics of knitting, and to bring the double pointed needles you'd use for fingering weight yarn. For more information, talk to Alissa.
*December* Book Club
December 3rd at 7pm at the Library
(Note: November Book Club meets in December due to the holiday. ) Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead is based on the historic Dozier School, a notorious reform school in Florida that operated for 111 years. A university investigation found numerous unmarked graves for unrecorded deaths and a history into the late 20th century of emotional and physical abuse of students. Called one of the best books of the decade by Time, The Nickel Boys won the 2020 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. Judges of the prize called the novel "a spare and devastating exploration of abuse at a reform school in Jim Crow-era Florida that is ultimately a powerful tale of human perseverance, dignity and redemption."
Santa comes to Salisbury!
December 5th at 5pm at the Library
You're invited to our holiday party! Meet at Veteran's Park or at the Library, and wait for Santa to arrive in his festive fire engine. Santa and the elves will read some stories for the kids, kids will get to decorate our tree, and our elves will serve hot chocolate and cookies. Door prizes too!
