Your local library elves at the Ellsworth Public Library had a very fun holiday season, as shown by the photo.
We had a great time over Christmas with lots of holiday events. Now, to start out the new year, the library elves have scheduled many more fun, interesting and valuable programs.
As part of the Ellsworth Sesquicentennial Celebration, the library is inviting the public (individuals or groups) to help create a fabric mural to be displayed at the library throughout the summer. Each person or group who participates will create a panel commemorating a landmark or scene from the Ellsworth area, past or present. Anyone is welcome to participate. Visit the library for more information or give us a call.
The yearly Mystery Quilt will be in full swing with the first clue available as of Thursday, Jan. 19. Don’t know what a Mystery Quilt is?
Clues are given out each week on how to create a quilt step by step. The quilter doesn’t know what the completed project will look like until several clues have been given. It’s a lot of fun and there’s much anticipation.
At the end of the program, all those who took part meet for an evening of sharing where everyone shows their completed quilt (or as much as they have done!). There’s lots of oohs and aahs and refreshments, too. This program has grown over the years and many regulars at the library can’t wait to take part.
Shelley Anderson is the Ellsworth Library Director.
