October 27 @ 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
Wrensong will fill the NWPL Mezzanine with Renaissance music on Saturday afternoon, October 27. The theme of the program is “Longing, Happiness and Regret,” explored in music about places, love, and the spirit. We sing songs of desire for Innsbruck, California, and Jerusalem, of happiness in spring groves and heavenly chariots, and of regret for youthful offenses and surrendered loves. Music has to power to distill and intensify feelings, and we draw on composers from Josquin to Motown to unleash this power on these three fundamental emotions.

Librarians Serve the Community
Beyond the Library Building
The talented NWPL librarians have been out and about in the community offering library services "beyond our walls." In August they presented a "Rollickin' Rapid Book Review Roadshow" to the Woodstock Rotary Club. The mini book reviews were entertaining and well received. Director of Technology, Meg Brazill, offers technology tutoring several times each month at the Thompson Senior Center. Clare McFarland, Children's Librarian and her team offered a hands-on craft program "Marble Paper Painting" at the Woodstock History Center's Old Time Fair.
