What’s on @ The Library

January 31, 2019 By editor

AUTHOR VISIT Carolinda Witt Wednesday, 6th February 6pm, Parkes Shire Library
You never know what you will find when you go looking for relatives, but imagine Carolinda Witt’s surprise when her mystery grandfather turned out to be Walter Dicketts, MI5’s double agent ‘Celery.’

Carolinda has been a guest on ABC Conversations with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski and is the 2018 Winner of the Non-Fiction Prize awarded by the Society of Women Writers! Hear her talk and purchase copies of her book at special discounted prices.

RSVP by 4th February on 68612309 or parkes.library@parkes.nsw.gov.au

DIGITAL EXHIBITION The Art of Ageing 13th – 23rd February 2019
The exhibition is a NSW Government initiative which aims to challenge people’s views on ageing and the experiences of older people across the state. The exhibition celebrates the lives of older people living in regional NSW.

The Art of Ageing digital exhibition will be displayed in the foyer of Parkes Shire Library as well as the main body of the library to coincide with NSW Seniors Festival.

CHILDREN’S PROGRAMS RECOMMENCE
Once Upon a Story Time, Story Time and Rhyme Time all start the week of February 5th. Children’s Service Officers, Sandie and Debbie are excited to launch this year’s programs with a visit from “Dudley Dog” author Adam (Toby) Maidens. He will be reading from his book and giving some insight into where “Dudley Dog” will be travelling to next. He will be selling and signing books but is mostly looking forward to having fun with our youngest readers.
