Calling all teddy bear lovers! Visit “Bear-a-dise” on Thursday, Feb. 4 between 4:30 and 8 pm in Hamilton Public Library’s Community Room. There will be teddy bear music and treats for all, Beanie Baby bears for sale, and 25 cent raffle tickets for a china collector plate from the Lovable Teddies Plate Collection.

The quantity of bears is limited so come early. These plush bears have been generously donated by Doris Hill as a fundraiser for the library. Proceeds from the sale of the bears will be used to purchase children’s picture books for the library collection.

On Friday, Feb. 5 at 10:30 a.m., all are invited to attend a reception for artists whose work is currently featured in “Exceptional Art by Exceptional Artists”, the library’s newest exhibit. Among the exhibitors are local Heritage Farm artists. This exhibit will be available for viewing during regular library hours until mid March.

If you are looking for free help with your income taxes and qualify for either the VITA or RSVP tax assistance program, call the library, 824-3060, for more information.

The library is usually open Monday-Friday, 11 a.m. to 8 p.m, and Saturday, 10 a.m. – 1 p.m. Call the library for assistance during these hours.

The bookdrop at the Broad Street entrance is always open for your convenience.
