Step out like it's 1924! Join us after hours for a 1920s-themed centennial celebration of the 100 years since the Library found its home at 200 Main Street. But shh…it’s a speakeasy! (A relic of 1920's Prohibition era, the term "speakeasy" comes from the need to speak quietly, or "speak easy" in order to enter a bar or nightclub where alcoholic beverages were available illegally.)

• Enjoy hors d'oeuvres and drinks. 
• Dance away, or just tap your toes, to live jazz music.
• Play popular card and board games of the 1920s (as well as some that have become popular since then too).
• Compete against fellow attendees on a book-based scavenger hunt.
• Have medium Kathy Hennelly do a private reading (limited 15-minute sessions available on a first-come, first-served basis when you check in that evening).

So put on your glad rags and get dolled up! It'll be the bee's knees!
