Summer Reading Challenge
Pick up your Summer Reading Challenge sheet at the library or print your own! Read around the rainbow, with each color being a different genre. Collect a chocolate for each book you read and get a coupon for a free drink at the Corner Brew when your rainbow is complete!
Mondays from 3:30-4:30pm. Join local artist Raymond Crognale to explore technique and artistic expression in these free classes at the Southworth Library this summer. Discover the use of color and perspective as you make your own creations to take home. These classes are geared towards adult learners. Registration is required. These classes are made possible through generous funding from the New York State Library Coordinated Outreach Services Program.
