Everyone at the Mattapoisett Free Public Library would like to thank all of you who participated in our Summer Reading Programs! If you participated in the Children’s Program and finished your minutes, be sure to stop by the library to pick up your prizes. If you participated in the Adult and Teen Program, we will announce the winners this week! For those of you who are not ready for the summer fun to end, we have some upcoming programs to help you get the most out of the last weeks of summer.
On Tuesday, August 17, at 6:30 pm, the Cookbook Club will meet in person to discuss Quick & Simple by Jacques Pepin. In Quick & Simple, Pepin gives us 250 recipes for surprisingly achievable, impressive fare. Covering homemade staples and every course, with tips for kitchen tools and equipment, pantry staples, and techniques to simplify and improve every dish you make, this foundational, classic collection is essential for every busy home cook who refuses to eat poorly. Visit our website to learn more or to register.
On Saturday, August 21, at 12:00 pm, join us for Bingo on the library lawn (weather permitting)! Everyone wins! All ages welcome. No registration required.
On Friday, August 27, at 12:00 pm, join us for the End of Summer Tailgate. Join us as we celebrate the end of summer with the last hurrah! Come and play all sorts of lawn games, such as Jenga, Kerplunk, Snakes & Ladders, and more! There will also be a simple craft and snacks. No registration is required. Bring the whole family!
All programs are free and open to the public. If you have any questions or need special accommodations, please contact the library at 508-758-4171 or email the Adult Services/Reference Librarian, Michelle Skaar at mskaar@sailsinc.org.
