Stevens Memorial Library - April Stay-cation Programs

STAY-CATION PROGRAMS

During Stay-cation week, 4/15 to 4/22, the Stevens Memorial Library has great programs planned for all members of the family. Join us for our “Short and Sweet” week, based on the game show Minute to Win It. We are offering a wide a variety of programs including Movies; Eggstravaganza; 3 “Minute to Win It” programs on Science, Construction, and Food; Mini Crafts and our popular weekly storytimes. If you have not attended a storytime, drop by and check it out. See the complete list of programs below for more details. You can also check the library website calendar: www.StevensMemLib.org or call the library for more information 978-688-9505 X42010. These programs are made possible by the Friends of the Stevens Memorial Library. You can support the Friends by attending their May and November book sales.

As always stop by the library to pick out a good book to read or a movie to watch. If you are traveling over the holidays, don’t forget audio books for the car trip and e-books to make your suitcase lighter. If you reserved a museum pass, keep our holiday hours in mind to insure you can pick it up before you go. From all of us at the Stevens Memorial Library we wish our patrons and the North Andover community a safe and enjoyable school vacation.
