Free Trees from Neighborhood Forest!

Saturday, March 14, 2026
All Day Event

We’re partnering with Neighborhood Forest to provide FREE TREES for children to plant! Sign up through Neighborhood Forest by March 15th to reserve a tree, and pick it up at the library. Trees will arrive around Earth Day (April 22nd). We’ll contact you when your tree is ready for pick-up at the library! One tree per child is free; no purchase necessary.

Islamic Art

Tuesday, March 17, 2026
6:30pm – 7:30pm

Learn about the history of art from the Islamic world from Hamid Hemat, a curator at the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art. Hemat will cover topics including divine geometry, decorative arts, and the evolution of calligraphy, including the world-famous Nastaliq style that developed in medieval Iran. After the lecture, you’ll get to make your own calligraphy by writing a word in Persian script.

Concert: Inner Groove

Saturday, March 21, 2026
2:00pm – 3:30pm

Inner Groove is a Meriden-based band that plays an eclectic mix of rock and classic rock, with the occasional pop and country song thrown in for good measure. The common denominator in every song they choose to cover is a strong vocal presence and a catchy tune.
