Dear Hoboken,


March is just around the corner, and we're thrilled to announce our lineup of events celebrating Women's History Month at the library! Throughout the month, we'll be hosting several programs and activities honoring the contributions of women throughout history and in our community today.


We're also excited to celebrate Makers Day on Saturday, March 16 in our brand-new Makerspace. This special occasion invites everyone to explore their creativity and dive into hands-on activities to ignite their imagination. Whether you're a seasoned crafter or just curious to try something new, our Makerspace offers a variety of tools and resources to bring your ideas to life. From 3D printing and laser cutting to button making and DIY projects, there's no limit to what you can create. Join us for a day of innovation, collaboration, and celebration!


Regards,

Jennie Pu

Library Director
