Goshen Public Library & Historical Society at 366 Main Street, Goshen.
The Goshen Public Library is keeping busy. It recently hosted a successful blood drive, with 40 donors participating, helping to save an estimated 107 lives.
But that’s not all that’s happening at the Library. On April 26 and 27, the Friends of the Goshen Public Library will be holding their annual book sale, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day. And over the next few weeks, a meadow and water environment will be planted at the library to promote environmental awareness and education. Once the project’s complete, the library will host a special event on World Bee Day (May 20).
Patrons can also check out the works by David J. Valentin and Jason D. Ropchock on exhibit in the Pomares Community Room. The show, “Through Our Eyes, a portrayal of creativity through the eyes of two local artists,” is on exhibit through May.
