The Friends of the Library are sponsoring a unique event, an afternoon of
 painting with Lisa Buglione-Desharnais. Lisa is an artist, art teacher and art therapist with over 30 year experience in the field.

Program will include a talk/demonstration and then time for individuals to try their skills. Registration is necessary and the $30 cost includes all supplies and refreshments. Tickets can be purchased at the Main desk or by calling 978 686-4080 x33 and last day for ticket purchase is April 20, 2019
