Don't forget- this Saturday is our kick-off celebration of the 150th anniversary of the Stowe Free Library- tell your friends, neighbors and then come celebrate with us!

The Stowe Free Library is celebrating its 150th anniversary this year! The Library started in 1866 with a $100 town appropriation and 50 assorted books. It has now grown to accommodate 35,000 library materials and over 5,000 borrowers.

Help us celebrate the past century and a half! All are invited to the kickoff celebration on the Stowe Free Library lawn at 3:00 on Saturday, May 21st. A brief presentation by Charlie Lusk, Library Board Chair, Willy Noyes, Selectboard Chair, Martha Reid, State Librarian, and Martha Economou, Past Library Board Chair, will be followed by a concert presented by the Stowe High School Jazz Ensemble. Refreshments will be provided. The program will be moved inside if the weather is not cooperative.
