December at the Arts Center
Ah, December - winter is here, Christmas is coming, and there are some exciting events on the calendar at the Fosston Community Library Art Center.
The Great Northern Radio Show is coming to Fosston. This live stage production featuring musicians, storytellers, and radio theater will be broadcast from the arts center theater on Saturday, Dec. 14. The show begins at 5 p.m. but audience members must by seated by 4:30. Hosted by Aaron Brown, author and college instructor, the program, which was launched in October 2011, has been produced at various sites throughout northern Minnesota. The featured musical guests for the performance will be Reina del Cid & the Cidizens. You may want to listen to KBXE (90.5) for more details on this special event.
On Sunday, Dec. 8, at 7 p.m. Orland Aspen’s vocal students will present their annual Christmas recital. Students of all ages will be singing some of your favorite Christmas songs to help you get into that holiday spirit. Refreshments will be served at this free program.
The book club will also be thinking Christmas when it meets on Tuesday, Dec. 10, at 7 p.m. This month’s selection is The Christmas Sweater by Glen Beck. Pick up a copy of the book at the library and join us. There will be coffee and maybe some goodies too.
Writers’ group will be meeting on Thursday, Dec. 5, at 7:30 p.m. Will there be a Christmas theme? One never knows, but it’s always interesting to see what the members have brought to share with the group. If you think you might be interested, come and see what it’s all about. You don’t even need to bring any of your writing, at least the first time you come.
If you are interested in making your own gift tags, Cheryl Winkelmann will be at the library at 4 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 12, to help you do just that. This craft is suitable for all ages.
Family fun time continues at the library every Wednesday at 3:30 p.m. December’s sessions include Deck the Halls on Dec. 4, Holiday BINGO on Dec. 11, and gift wrap activities on Dec. 18.
The library will be closing at noon on Dec. 24 and will of course be closed Christmas Day. It will be open regular hours for the rest of that week. On New Year’s Eve, the library will close at 5 p.m. and will be closed on New Year’s Day as well.
