February Break Activities

There's something for everyone during the February school break:

On Mon. Feb. 21st at 10:00am we will be showing the movie "Shrek Forever After". Longing for the days when he was a 'real ogre,' Shrek signs a deal with Rumpelstiltskin to get his roar back, but turns his world upside down in the process. Donkey suddenly can't remember his best friend, Fiona is now a tough warrior princess, and Puss in Boots is one fat cat! Together, they have just 24 hours to reverse the contract and restore happily forever after.

Bring along a snack and a drink and see if they succeed. No registration is required for this program.

On that same day, Mon. Feb. 21st at 3:00pm the owners of Victor's new comic book store, Two Kings Comics, will be at the library discussing Comics: Past, Present and Future.
