Letter from the Director

The July/August newsletter is extra-special, celebrating the 125th anniversary of your library.

Dear Residents,
The July/August newsletter is extra-special, celebrating the 125th anniversary of your library. I am very grateful to Information Services Manager, Ellen Drucker-Albert, and Cold Spring Harbor Library trustee & Town of Huntington Historian, Robert Hughes, for their research. A community-wide party is planned for Saturday, July 16 at 7:00 p.m. We hope you add this event to your calendar and join the celebration. Invitations were mailed in early June, but you may pick one up at the library, or purchase tickets online.

The librarians have planned an exciting 8-week program for all ages based on the internationally-themed statewide summer reading clubs. There will be art workshops, a concert, films, book discussions, even belly dancing and pretzel making. On Thursday, July 14, Juliet Eilperin will talk about her new book, Demon Fish. On Saturday, July 16 at 1:00 p.m., the cast from Go, Dog. Go! will be here to entertain the children. Also, this summer we are proud to show the work of a premier American Impressionist painter, Stokely Webster (1912 – 2001).

All of these programs clearly demonstrate our commitment to “Expanding Your Horizons.”

Hope to see you soon!
