CANCELLED Fall 2021 Harbor Arts & Books Fair

Reluctantly, the Library has decided to CANCEL the Harbor Arts and Books show scheduled for October 2 & 3. In light of rising coronavirus concerns, cancellations of other events, and health concerns of staff, vendors, and visitors, we did not feel we could offer a strong show this fall. We plan to come back strong with this fair in 2022. Fingers crossed.
