Friends’ Book Bag Fundraiser

The Friends of the Gale Library continue to hold their ongoing fundraiser featuring customized Book Bags for only $16.00.

The bags feature a printed photograph of the Library designed by Carol Szot, a Newton NH artist who had previously served on the Library’s Board of Trustees.

The bags are beautiful and sturdy to hold many books and treasures!

Tuesday Children’s Storytimes

Families are invited to join us each Tuesday morning at 10 a.m. for children’s stories and songs.  If the weather is pleasant and warm, plans will be for outside attendance.

Weekly crafts bags that correspond with each week’s theme will also be available.  Please call (603) 382-4691 to attend.  Registrations are required at this time due to capacity restrictions.

Craft bags for children will now be available upon placing a reservation request by email, phone or in person due to limited supplies.
