The Boulder City Library will host a number of events in November that patrons are certain to want to participate in so settle in while we tell you all about them!
First of all, the Library is having their annual Open House on Friday, November 3 starting at 4:00PM. This is an extra special open house because they will also be “cutting the ribbon” so to speak on the Makerspace they’ve been building for the past several months. We discussed that in detail HERE. You can tour the space, along with the rest of the library on Friday. In addition to the open house and grand opening of the Makerspace, they are also showing a movie at sunset in the library’s amphitheater. Bring your own chairs, pillows and blankets to stay comfy during the movie, Elemental. The animated movie, from Disney Pixar, is rated PG and you can learn more about it HERE.
If you have an interest in Mixed Media art, you can attend one of the ongoing classes on Saturday, November 4 at 1:00PM Signups are required but supplies will be provided by the library.
