Arnett Branch Library
It looked for a while like our neighborhood library was slated for closure due to budget cuts, but all that has changed!
Working collaboratively with Deb Leary and the Friends of the Arnett Library, as well as Bruce Tehan and his wonderful library staff, some of our projects in recent years have included renovating the foyer, setting up a public display case of events, arranging a music program, renovating the walls of the Children’s Room with murals, coordinating community youth events in the Garden Park next door, supporting murals on the outside wall panels (see above), and developing collaborative programs with Rochester Rec and School #29.
Story Reading is one program we sponsor that happens twice a week on Tuesdays and Saturdays all year around. Click here if you would like to read more about this or become a Volunteer Story Reader.
Several times a year we also coordinate and host a community Music Event at the Library. Click here to read more about this program. We’d love to have your ideas and help!
