Start your holiday shopping early at the Friends of the Old Lyme Phoebe Griffin Noyes Library (PGN Library) annual Holiday Book Sale in the Community Room at the Library on Saturday, Dec. 6, from 10 to 2 p.m.
Prices are below retail on excellent copies of the latest best sellers, classics, a wide array of children’s books, music CDs and a broad selection of nonfiction titles. A limited number of signed copies of Bill Berloni’s Broadway Tails will be for sale. This is an excellent opportunity to purchase like-new books at reasonable prices for everyone on your holiday list. All proceeds benefit the library.
Upstairs in the Ludington Gallery, local artists and artisans will showcase their works for gift giving: paintings, prints, cards and collages, sterling silver jewelry, small quilts, wine bags and delicious holiday treats by Cupcakes & Flying Hearts for your enjoyment. Free mulled cider and hot chocolate will be available in the lobby to keep you refreshed for a strenuous day of gift-buying.
Shopping at the Friends Holiday Book Sale or Boutique? Need a little something for the kids to do while you shop? The Children’s Room will host Drop-In Crafts for your little ones. Stop by for music, fun, and some special winter crafts. Create a beautiful paper snowflake or make an edible snowperson. This activity is perfect for kids of all ages and all materials will be provided. No need to register, just drop in.
All programs are free and open to the public. Support the Library by patronizing the Friends.
