Henry David Thoreau Bicentennial State Wide Read

"The bicentennial of Thoreau's birth offers the perfect opportunity to consider the myriad ways that Thoreau's words and actions are still very relevant today, having direct applicability to so many realms of 21st-Century life."-Walden.org
Join us in celebrating HDT: copies of Civil Disobedience are available at the library, or in eBook and eAudio, and there are copies at Gutenberg.org. We have a few Thoreau-inspired events: cabin-building storytime on Sat. April 29 at 11, sharpen your observational skills with a sketching workshop for teens and adults on Sat. May 13, hear Dr. Nancy Shultz's take on Civil Disobedience on Tue. June 13 at 7, and don't forget our Concord Museum pass.
