Help us celebrate the season with our 2nd annual Gingerbread House Contest!

Wander the Gingerbread Village built by fellow community members and vote on your favorites! The Village will be displayed in the Old Main Reading Room Wednesday, December 2nd, 5:00-8:00 pm. 

Interested in building a house for the Village? Registration opens on Saturday, November 21st, where free kits will be available in The Pop-Up at Coy on a first come, first served basis, or you may submit your own creation! Registration is still required. Drop off your completed constructions, in a box, at the library on Tuesday, December 1st from 12-6 pm. Gingerbread houses may not exceed 18''x18'' base and 12'' height. Stop back at the library to pick up your build no later than 7:45 pm Thursday, December 3rd.
