December at the Art Center
Snow and ice, cold temperatures, long dark winter nights - it must be December. Once again you may get into the holiday spirit by attending a special program of Christmas music at the Fosston Community Library Arts Center on Sunday, Dec. 7, at 7:00 p.m. Orland Aspen’s vocal students will be performing, refreshments will be served, and it’s free. What more could you ask for?
The library book club will be having a Christmas party on Tuesday, Dec. 9, at 7 p.m. This month’s book is He Sees You When You’re Sleeping by mother and daughter team Mary Higgins Clark and Carol Higgins Clark. Attendees are asked to bring appetizers or treats to share as well as some suggestions as to what to read in the coming year. New members are always welcome.
Plans are for a new exhibit to go up in the Sorenson Gallery by mid-December. It will feature mixed media/assemblage art by Fosston resident Karen Dearing.
If you are looking ahead to the new year and are thinking you might like an opportunity to volunteer your time and talents, I have a suggestion for you. The FCLAA board will be needing four new members in January. This board supervises the various activities sponsored by the FCLAA - gallery, theater, music, and lectures, as well as helping to promote the Fosston Library. Meetings are held at 5:30 p.m. on the first Wednesday of each month. If you think you might be interested, contact Keri Mireault (435-6675) for more information.
Writers’ group will meet Thursday, Dec. 4, at 7:30 p.m. This group is for anyone interested in writing, whether for publication or just for their own family. Usually folks bring a sample of their writing to share with the group, but if you think you may be interested, you’re welcome to just sit in and find out what goes on.
The library is looking pretty festive these days as more winter/Christmas decorations are going up right along. The Christmas tree constructed of books is particularly impressive so be sure to take note of that when you’re there.
Just a reminder about holiday closings:
The library will close at noon on Dec. 24 and of course be closed Christmas Day. It will be open for the usual hours on Dec. 26. On New Year’s Eve, the library will close at 5 p.m. and be closed New Year’s Day, reopening for normal hours on Jan. 2.
Stay warm and have a Merry Christmas.
