Altamont Library Notes for Thursday, September 19, 2013

There is a deep, historical connection between Indonesia and ourselves. Indonesia was what Christopher Columbus was looking for when he sloshed up and across our beaches instead.

So perhaps it will feel a little like coming home when the Altamont Free Library presents this month’s Potluck Dinner Around the World dinner, focusing on Indonesia. It promises to be a pleasant evening, and we can further promise that no diners will fall off the edge of the earth.

The date is Monday, Sept. 30, at 6 p.m.  Please sign up at the library.

Attempts to contact and invite descendants of Admiral Columbus proved unsuccessful.

Advance notice

The library will be presenting its first ever Adult Creative Hour on Monday, Oct. 7, at 7 p.m.  Here’s how it works: Visit our Pinterest Board on line and “like” the craft that most interests you. The project with the most “hearts” will be our first craft and will be announced a week in advance. 

This is designed as a fun grown-ups’ evening out with all that this entails, of course.
