Library home to live music & family fun all summer long
Bozeman Public Library offers more than just a vast selection of books, periodicals, and movies to its many pass-holders – it also hosts a number of engaging events open to the public. Here’s a look at what’s coming up.
Stock up on your summer reading list at the next Friends Used Book Sale, set for Friday through Sunday, June 22nd–24th. Day one is reserved for members only, the sale running from 4–7pm. Not a member? Log on to www.FriendsBPL.org and join today! The event opens to the public on Saturday from 9am–5pm, before closing out with a “bag sale” on Sunday from 10am–2pm. Please bring your own bags! Books range .50¢ to $2 each with special and collectible books individually priced for sale.
The sale of used books accounts for 3/4 of the Friends fundraising for the Library. Proceeds from the sale directly benefit Library services such as the Most Wanted book collection, new computer lab, bookmobile materials, book club kits, summer reading programs, and so much more. Head down for some great new reads and support your neighborhood library in the process!
In partnership with Gallatin Valley Food and HRDC, the Library offers FREE Summer Lunch on weekdays from noon–1pm. Families have the option to stop by for a complimentary healthy lunch in between the days’ activities. Meals served are tasty, follow USDA nutrition guidelines, and help ALL families save money. Summer is a time to bring people together for food, friends, and fun!
Yoga for All abilities continues into the summer months. This weekly event is held every Tuesday at 11am and noon in the Large Community Room. Open to all ages and abilities, instructors focus on the basics of yoga, breathing, and mind/body connections. Please bring your own mat and any props you choose to use, including blocks or straps.
Two instructors share teaching the 11am class, Danielle Nicholas and Terra Kopf. Danielle received her teacher certification from Yoga Motion in January and is working on Hatha Teacher Training with Soul of Yoga out of Encinitas, CA. Terra completed her teacher training at the Maui Yoga Shala and additional training at the Yandara Yoga Institute in Baja, Mexico. Brooke Russell, a Yoga Motion-certified instructor, will continue to teach the noon class.
