ARMONK, N.Y. As the weather gets warmer and summer is just around the corner, the North Castle Library has a number of programs and events for residents of all ages.
We took a look at our long term plan and wanted to feature programs that people of all ages could enjoy, said Library Director Christine Ansnes.
In the coming weeks, the library will offer programs such as poetry reading, book clubs, social media classes, defensive driving courses and art lectures, among many more. Each program is offered to residents of North Castle free of charge thanks to funding from the Friends of the North Castle Library. Although Ansnes said that this week has been slow due to many families traveling while the school districts are on spring break, the library has even found a way to provide entertainment for families outside of Armonk.
One of our most popular items has been our museum passes, Asnsnes said. So while people are traveling and such this week they can pick up a pass to many great museums in the area.
The list of museums includes the American Museum of Natural History, the Guggenheim Museum and the Childrens Museum of Manhattan, among others. The passes are free to any North Castle Library cardholder.
This summer, Ansnes said the library is excited to expand on its Summer Reading Games program for children, which kicks off on June 20. Megan Dean, the director of the program, said that the library has seen almost double the amount of registered participants from last summer.
Weve seen large increase in kids for this summer, especially in the toddler age range, Dean said. We have a of great programs lined up so it should be exciting.
