The Library had a wonderful time connecting with community members at our booth, sharing information about Library services and making fun crafts together, including buttons and friendship bracelets. We loved being part of an event celebrating so many different cultures!

A look back at our Food for Thought exhibit reception! 🍽️💭

Last week, we gathered at Kennedy Library to celebrate the stories, memories, and traditions our community shared through the Food for Thought exhibit. Thank you to everyone who joined us for a wonderful celebration of food, culture, and connection!

The Food for Thought exhibit is on view at Kennedy Library through October, so there’s still time to stop by and explore the stories and memories shared by your friends and neighbors.

This exhibit is part of our Food for Thought project, made possible by a grant from the @nj.humanities, a state partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Any views, findings, conclusions, or recommendations expressed in this event do not necessarily represent those of the National Endowment for the Humanities or the New Jersey Council for the Humanities.

There’s nothing better than a morning at the Library with the family! 📖

Families joined us for our Preschool Family Story Time, enjoying stories, crafts, and games throughout the morning at our Westergard branch. It was wonderful to see our youngest readers and their families enjoy a welcoming, fun-filled morning together. 😀

Library Card Sign-Up Month is still going strong! If your little reader doesn’t have a library card yet, there’s still time to get one and start making the Library part of their reading journey. And don’t forget to check our online calendar for upcoming events!
