Wednesdays Are Back Happy Hour!

galaxy owlRemember our burst pipes and how we had to cancel the happy hour scheduled to celebrate that Topsham Public Library is open again on Wednesday evenings? Well, we have rescheduled!

Please join us, Wednesday, August 3, 2016 (next Wednesday) at 5pm for mocktails in the gallery. These are special mocktails made with Tang – the drink of astronauts everywhere. Then, if you want, stay for a special Show and Tell with a Space Pioneer at 6pm!

Mr. George Krassner is a Topsham resident and a space pioneer. His designs were used in the world’s first communication and weather satellites and for the fuel control system in the command module of the Apollo spacecraft. He will share insider stories, secrets, and goofs of the space program, display memorabilia and play the taped recording of President Eisenhower’s message of peace to the world from the first communication satellite, using the electronics designed by Mr. Krassner. You don’t want to miss it!!

If you can’t make it for this special event, please, don’t forget Topsham Public Library is now open Wednesdays until 8pm. Our schedule is: Sunday/Monday closed, Tuesday – Thursday 9am-8pm, Friday 9am-5pm, and Saturday 9am-4pm.

If you’re a teen and would like to make awesome galaxy art like the one featured in this blog post, register now by emailing cyndi@topshamlibrary.org to take part on Saturday, August 6 at 1pm!

See you at Topsham Public Library!
