Medfield Together Invites All to 3rd Annual Black History Knowledge Quest

In celebration & recognition of Black History Month, Medfield Together invites you to join us on our 3rd Annual Black History Knowledge Quest during the month of February.

Families and individuals are challenged to find 13 Black history portals, all posted within the interior of the Medfield Public Library.

You can venture on the Quest in either the children’s section on the second floor or in the teen area on the lower floor. Each section features the same set of portals so you only need to go to one.

At the portals, you will find a placard highlighting the achievements and contributions of either a past or present figure in Black history - several have connections to Medfield! On each placard, look for a magnifying glass 🔍 with letters inside of it and keep track of them. Once you’ve found all 13 of the placards, combine the letters from the magnifying glasses to decode an important & meaningful quote. If your child needs some extra clues for how to order the letters, please see a librarian for assistance.

Knowledge Quest participants will also have the opportunity to win a gift card to Park Street Books by entering the decoded quote on the below website.
