Look who’s coming to Library Fall Fest on 10/19/24, so far!

We are thrilled that October has arrived! Our Library Fall Fest is in a few weeks, Saturday, October 19, 2024 from 9 am to 1 pm, and we want to begin promoting all the authors, vendors, performers and community partners that, as of today, will be there! First of all we will spotlight two new, young musicians from the Mamou area: Shaun Young and Jayden Andrepont (I’ve heard them play and they are amazing) and a Balloon Artist from Lafayette, Bubbllee. The bubbles that this guy can create are mind blowing! Also, we will have the Henry Farm Petting Zoo for the duration of the Festival compliments of the Friends of the Library.  We will again set up a Kids Craft Zone and offer folks a chance to discover our Seed Library and for the first time, we are including a Community Garage Sale opportunity to anyone who wants to set up a booth. Also new this year, the library will be selling Popcorn and Hot Dog bag lunches along with our huge supply of Friends of the Library Used Books!
