CELEBRATING PERSIAN NEW YEAR - NOWRUZ
The weather’s warming up soon and there are blooms on the trees, which means spring is in the air! The Spring Equinox marks the Persian New Year, also known as Nowruz. It’s a joyous festival spent feasting, dancing and gift-giving for Persian families around the world and in our very own Redwood City. We are delighted to celebrate Nowruz at the Library, with two special events! 

Ring in the spring season with the whole family on Tuesday, March 14 at the Downtown Library or Sunday, March 26 at the Redwood Shores Branch Library. We’ll share stories, crafts, music, and more!

CITYTREES WORKSHOP
Local nonprofit CityTrees will hold its annual Tree Pruning Workshop on Saturday, March 25, 10am-12:30pm at the Downtown Library.⁠

The workshop will consist of approximately one hour of classroom training on tree care and maintenance, followed by outdoor pruning practice. ⁠

Both amateur and professional pruners are welcome to attend. The workshop prepares attendees to prune their own trees, and/or volunteer at pruning events for CityTrees.⁠

Go here register for this free event⁠.⁠

CityTrees is a volunteer-run organization in Redwood City that works with local partners and community volunteers to promote a vibrant urban canopy within our community. The team works to ensure an equitable spread of trees across all areas of our community, wherever possible. To learn more and get involved, go here.
