A big thank you to Jessica from Within the Whale and, of course, Chunk the Whale for visiting the Milbridge Public Library again!🤍

Everyone had a whale of a time exploring inside Chunk and learning about humpback whales and marine life. We appreciate you sharing such a fun and educational experience with our community. We hope to see you again soon!🐋

🎨 Tween & Teen Bookend Painting! 📚

Join us next Friday from 1:00–4:00 PM for an afternoon of creativity as you paint a bookend!

Your design can follow our Dive Into Reading: Life and Stories of the Maine Coast summer reading theme, or you can let your imagination run wild and create something completely your own.

Ages 9–16 welcome.

🎨 All supplies will be provided.
🍕 Lunch will be provided for everyone who attends.

Participants are welcome to take their finished bookends home, or, if you’d like, you can donate them to the library to be used throughout our collection!
