Our one-year anniversary's coming up! Save the date: this coming Saturday, May 19, from 1:30 PM.

Come and help us celebrate the first anniversary of the Almaden Library and Community Center. On Saturday, May 19, 1:30 p.m. we will have a special anniversary gathering in the courtyard with Councilmember Nancy Pyle, and other city officials as our special guests. Highlighting the celebration will be the dedication of the “Ohlone Woman” bronze sculpture by Lisa Reinertson, and the “Teaching Stones” an exterior sculptural seating element by art students from the Academy of Art University. The “Teaching Stones” is an inspirational work commemorating the life and contribution of the late Doris Dillon, a respected teacher and community leader. On Friday, May 18, we will have some special treats at our regular story times (10:30 a.m. and 11:15 a.m.) and a PlayStation2 GameFest, 2:30 to 5 p.m. for teens. Refreshments for the two-day celebration are provided by the Friends of the Almaden Library.
