West Paris library plans to light up

WEST PARIS — The West Paris Library will soon be glowing every evening, outlined with sparkling white lights and a big red heart in the front window. The first lighting of this winter season will be on Friday, December 14 at 6:15 p.m.

All are invited to share in this annual festive event. This year they are celebrating those who helped make the dream of a more spacious library a reality.

Following the illumination of lights, if the weather permits, there will be horse drawn wagon rides for the young and young at heart. Inside, holiday cookies and hot, mulled cider will be served.

There will be songs by the Agnes Gray Explorers and a sing-along of the season’s favorites with Jim Burke playing the keyboard.

“The Little Castle with the Big Heart,” as the Library is known locally, continues to thrive with many new patrons, art displays of local artists and a variety of children’s, as well as adult programs. For more information call the library at 674-2004.

Library hours are Monday and Friday 1:30 to 6 p.m.; Wednesday 1:30 to 7 p.m and Saturday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
