The Mattapoisett Library has a number of events this December. Check them out below.

Friends of the Library Annual Meeting
Come to the Meeting Room at the Mattapoisett Library Sunday, Dec. 14, 1 p.m., to learn about the Friends, what they’ve been up to this past year, to become a member, renew a membership or give a membership as a holiday gift. The Friends were established in 1998, and over the years have contributed to the library’s expansion and furnishings. The Friends also underwrite museum passes and are responsible for many events and programs, many of which are for Mattapoisett children. In addition to the monthly book sales, the Friends are always ready to lend a hand when needed.

There will be no Book Sale on Saturday, December 13.
