Founding Day Fundraising Festival, Dec. 10

125th Anniversary Celebration!

The Katonah Village Library opened on December 10th, 1880 with a total of 400 volumes on hand. Join trustees and library staff in celebration of our 125th birthday with a festival of activities on the big day.

Billy Collins will read in the afternoon, there will be tours of the original library building, a library history slide show, a children's party with entertainment, a holiday boutique and, best of all, an author's meet and greet downstairs on the lower level of the library. To wrap it all up, famed jazz guitarist John Scofield will be playing an intimate concert.

All proceeds from the concert ticket sales will go to benefit the library.
