Harrison Library Re-Opens Saturday with a Bang

The new library opens Sept. 12 with a full schedule of events.

“The library’s $3.6 million renovation was made possible through a roughly 50/50 public-private partnership between the Town of Harrison, the Harrison Public Library and the HPL Foundation, and the Richard E. Halperin Memorial Fund, which contributed $1.3 million. Other major contributors included the Javitch Foundation, honoring the late Harrison resident Lee Javitch, Jarden Corporation, and Morgan Stanley. Over 500 private donors contributed to the project,” according to the website.

The ribbon-cutting ceremony starts at 11:30 a.m. at 2 Bruce Ave.

The llamas are the finishing act.
