Thank you to everyone that checked in at the library’s booth yesterday at the Anthracite Heritage Festival. Whether you stopped by for raffle chances or to craft an adorable puppet, it’s always a wonderful way to connect with folks and share everything that’s going on for all ages at the library this summer and beyond!

Additionally, thank you to the lovely ladies from the Music and Mindfulness Initiative for helping us bring the magic of puppetry to the children of the Shamokin & Coal Township area and of course Jeanne Shaffer and the Northumberland County Council For The Arts and Humanities for including our organization in what is always a wonderful event!
