Meet the Artist Meredith Morabito - Wild Chipmunk PhotosMeet the Artist Meredith Morabito - Wild Chipmunk Photos –
Just prior to Covid, Meredith noticed a lively scurry of chipmunks frolicking outside her artist studio. One, in particular, would soon become her muse. Meredith and “Cali Bubbleyum” (as the inquisitive chipmunk would come to be known) soon bonded, and an unexpected photography project was born. Meredith lays out elaborate stage sets and waits for Cali to show up and pose appropriately. Thursday, May 18 |

Celebrate World Bee Day At Burger HillCelebrate World Bee Day At Burger Hill –
Join us to celebrate World Bee Day and help Winnakee and the Pollinator Patrol Club, raise awareness of the essential role bees and other pollinators play in keeping people and the planet healthy, and the many challenges they face today. We will build native bee houses while learning about Burger Hill’s pollinator habitat and how to create an inviting space for these important species. Wild pollinators like bees play a major role in maintaining biodiversity, ensuring the survival and reproduction of many plants, supporting forest regeneration, promoting sustainability and adaptation to climate change and improving the quantity and quality of agricultural productions. Help us support them! Saturday, May 20 |
We offer story times and other activities for children, teens, and adults, including a book discussion group. Check our program calendar or call the library at 845-889-4683.
