Food for Fines at the Huron Public Library, etc.

This week, November 16 - 22, is a Food for Fines amnesty week at the Huron Public Library (HPL). Residents can trade non-perishable food items for their current or past due library fines on HPL items and not on items borrowed from other libraries through Clevnet. Missing and lost items cannot for forgiven. All food donations will be forwarded to the Huron Food Pantry, where it is a very busy time of year with the upcoming holidays. Some suggested items that are in great need at the Food Pantry include cereal, macaroni & cheese, hearty soups, baking supplies, canned fruit, jelly, and canned meats.  Let's try to fill the shopping cart in the library!

The HPL's annual Holiday Open House will be held on Sunday, December 7th from 2pm - 4pm. The library will be hosting two performances by Children's performer Tom Phoolery and his show, "Christmas AbraKIDabra". For adults and older students, we have the Firelands String Quartet and performances from Caryl Crane Youth Theatre's production of "I'm Dreaming of a Broadway Christmas".  Also scheduled will be a kid's craft, face painting, a visit from Santa Claus, multiple holiday trees, refreshments, and more. The entire community is invited to attend, to celebrate the beginning of the Holiday season at the library with the Library Board of Trustees and staff.
