Our "A Recipe for..." Cookbook Club gathered on May 7th using Jamie Oliver's "7 Ways" cookbook as our inspiration.

We had a delicious potluck of unique dishes with globally inspired flavors allowing us to explore everyday ingredients in new ways.

Calling all Boxborough cardholders!

Are you looking for an alternative way to stream some good music? Waiting to see if you like the whole album before you buy it? 👂

⏰ (This librarian remembers going to the record store A LOT to buy new albums, and she's NOT EVEN THAT OLD!!!!!!) ⏳

🎵 Try Freegal Music using your library card and you'll have access to over 16 million songs! Rediscover some old favs, find something new and then go support those artists! I'm sure they will appreciate it. 🎵

We are excited to welcome back local Shrewsbury artist, Reiki healer, and yoga instructor, Bindu Gupta, for a two-hour workshop where you will learn to paint your own dot mandala!

This relaxing and fun activity requires no prior artistic ability and taps into traditional art that uses the pointillism technique to create beautiful, symmetrical designs.

To celebrate spring and the recent beautiful weather, let's get growing with some fiction that features gardens, farms, or growing things!

Stop by to check out May's display featuring the new release The Gardener's Club by Marnie Riches and the 2007 hit Garden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen.

From magical realism to murder mystery, hopefully there will be a fresh pick that makes you smile.

School Vacation week was so much fun here at the library! Thank you to everyone who attended events and helped us make them so much fun.
Following Monday's Patriots' Day holiday, we delved into the sweeter side of American life with a special family edition of our popular cookbook club. Participants made a recipe from either "American Cake" or "American Cookie" by Anne Bryn and brought them in to share. We learned a bit about the history of the chosen desserts and all enjoyed the tasting process!
And folks who didn't travel still had got to have a tropical experience at our Beach Party on Thursday. We had so much fun crafting, dancing, and playing at our sensory "beach"!
(Special thanks to the Friends of the Library, who sponsor all of our programs; and to Aubuchon Hardware in Ayer for donating just the right amount of sand for our beach!)

We turned the lights on our new furniture! No really, we did turn the lights, way up!

A pergola for the teen/tween area was installed AND we got LED lights as part of the town's Green Boxborough initiative!

And that's just part of this phase of our rearrangement plan.

Stay tuned for more!
