It doesn’t seem possible that December is already half over and the Holidays are upon us. Your Library Staff has done an amazing job, dressing up all 4 library locations for the season. Patrons have enjoyed the programs and hospitality of our Children’s events and Open Houses, with music and home baked treats also provided by Library staff. They are all exceptional people and along with the members of the Niagara Falls Library Board, we thank them all for their continuing efforts in making the Niagara Falls Public Library the dynamic place that it is. Thanks also to Rainbow Greenhouses for the Giant Poinsettia which they have placed in the Victoria Avenue Library. Seasons Greetings to one and all.
Big Screen Tuesday on December 22 is presenting the 1954 yuletide classic “White Christmas” - featuring Bing Crosby and Danny Kay in their prime, and the very recognizable music of Irving Berlin. Showtime is 7pm.
