Although the snow looks beautiful outside, it creates treacherous travelling conditions. The library will be closed this evening on Wednesday, December 31st. Stay safe if you have to be out and we will see you Friday! Have a safe and Happy New Year 🙂
Holiday Spirit in the village
Holiday spirit in the village of philadelphia
Join us for a magical community celebration at the Annual Friends of the Library Tree Lighting Ceremony, happening Sunday, December 14th at the Philadelphia American Legion, 58 Main Street, at 4:30 PM! This year’s theme is Reindeer Roundup, and we invite everyone—kids, teens, and adults—to wear your most festive, fun, or antler-inspired headgear. Enjoy an evening filled with door prizes, holiday games, a cozy story read-aloud, and free cookies and cocoa to warm your hands and hearts. Don’t forget to take part in the Friends Group’s yearly fundraiser, where they’ll be selling raffle tickets for gift baskets and prizes donated by several wonderful local businesses right here in Philadelphia, NY. Come celebrate the season, gather with neighbors, and help support your library in the most festive way!
