It's all happening in April at the library!

April is a very busy month here at the library. We have a plethora of programs for your enjoyment. As April is National Poetry Month, we have a series of poetry readings happening on Wednesday nights. Our first poet is Steve Gibbon, a local writer and poet who is completing his final year of the MFA program at the Vermont College of Fine Arts. Steve lives in Topsham, not far from where he grew up. His connection with Maine and the landscape that surrounds him provides inspiration for his writing. His fiction and poetry have appeared in Harpur Palate, Pank Magazine and Words and Images, where his short story Rain Shine won the 2008 Excellence in Expression award. Steve will read on Wednesday, April 4 at 6pm. More information on our Poetry series is available here.

April also brings us Money Smart @ Your Library and to honor this we have a number of programs to help you economically. More information is here.

Last but definitely not least is National Library Week! To celebrate we will have a photo booth set up here in the library on Wednesday, April 11 from 4-8pm. Come and have your photo taken to show that You Belong @ Topsham Public Library. Out of the six photographs, we will keep 1 for our display and you get to keep the rest for free!
