Your New Library On Avenue A: The Inside Scoop

The Main Library Building Project was approved by Montague voters in June. Since then, the project team has finalized the design, selected building materials, pondered brickwork, and made decisions about landscaping, lighting, and even restrooms.

Join Schwartz/Silver Architects, Downes Construction, and Library Director, Caitlin Kelley, for a Main Library Building Project Update and a review of the design process on Thursday, December 10th at 6:00PM at the Senior Center. We'll go over the new interior renderings, review the project timeline, and discuss important decisions made over the last several months regarding layout, materials, and sustainability.

This is your inside scoop into the project with an exclusive announcement to be made at the end of the evening. Light refreshments will be served.
