Join us for our 70th Anniversary Celebration!


You’re invited to join us for an evening of celebration!


Take a trip down memory lane with us as we explore where the Library has been, celebrate how far we’ve come, and discover where we’re headed next.


The evening will be filled with interactive activities, creative crafting, plenty of opportunities to learn, and, most importantly… cake!


We’d love for you to join us as we celebrate the library, its past, and its exciting future.

Wildlife and Connection



Mathias Horne is a Canadian wildlife painter based in Squamish, British Columbia, working in large-scale acrylic portraiture. Many of his largest works are painted at true-to-life scale, allowing the subject to occupy the same physical space as the viewer.

The Art of Functionality


The exhibit showcases a variety of techniques used in ceramics. A mixture of glazed, marbled clay and Raku fired pieces. The focus is on creating functional ceramic pieces that blur the line between art and utility.
