Do you have UFO's at your house? We're not referring to unidentified flying objects, but rather Unfinished Objects! If you have unfinished projects taking up space in your craft cupboard, guest bedroom and basement workshop, then we invite you to join our UFO Group!

Bring your UFOs to the Ligonier Valley Library on the 2nd and 4th Friday of every month beginning on February 10, 2012, from 10:00 am to noon in the community room.

Our UFO group is a relaxed, social gathering of people working on their unfinished projects. In addition to having plenty of room to spread out, the community room also has a Wi-Fi Internet connection.

Call the Ligonier Valley Library at 724-238-6451 or visit our UFO page for more details.

No registration required. The group is free and open to the public.

Saturday Morning Movie @ the Library

February 25 at 10:30 am
Fall in love all over again as two dogs from different worlds begin a wonderful romance (and share a delightful plate of spaghetti) in this animated classic movie!

Join us for a family friendly movie on the last Saturday of every month. Movies will vary from current releases to oldie but goodies! Viewers are encouraged to bring snacks, drinks, pillows, or whatever will make you comfortable. This program is free and open to the public. It is recommended that children under 8 years of age be accompanied by a grown-up.
