Ellicottville Memorial Library Announces March Programs, Book Sale & New Releases
From Story Time and adult crafts to a community book sale and fresh fiction titles, the library welcomes spring with something for everyone.
ELLICOTTVILLE - As winter lingers and the promise of spring draws near, the Ellicottville Memorial Library is inviting the community to stop in, warm up, and take advantage of a full calendar of programs and events this March.
“Spring will be here soon,” the library shares in its March newsletter, reminding residents that the library remains a warm and cozy place even on the dreariest days. Visitors are encouraged to check out a book and stay awhile - whether reading, working on a puzzle, playing, or simply enjoying a quiet space outside the home.
Ongoing Book Sale: The library’s first book sale of the year continues through March 7th during regular library hours. Shoppers will find a wide selection of books, puzzles, movies and games. All proceeds directly support library programs and services, making it a great opportunity to stock up on reading material while giving back to a valued community resource.
Story Time with Dr. Kate: Families with young children are invited to attend Story Time, held Wednesdays at 9:30am. Join Dr. Kate for stories, sing-alongs, and crafts, with weekly themes: March 4th-Dr. Seuss, March 11th-Orange, March 18-Green, and March 25-Yellow. Story Time offers an engaging and creative way for children to build early literacy skills while having fun.
Crafts with Cathy for Adults: Adults can get creative during “Crafts with Cathy,” held Tuesdays from 2:00-3:00pm. On March 3rd, participants enjoyed creating felted Easter eggs. The remaining Tuesdays in March will focus on Ukrainian Easter eggs. The program offers a relaxed, welcoming environment to explore new artistic skills and create beautiful handmade pieces.
Thank You to February Donors: The library also extends heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed donations in February. Community support plays a vital role in sustaining library services, programming, and special events throughout the year.
