Join the Groton Public Library for our eleventh annual Bumpers & Books: A Literary Trunk-or-Treat! Library staff, volunteers, and community members will be on hand in the back parking lot to give out treats from the trunks of their vehicles, decorated to represent books, authors, or Dewey Decimal call numbers.
There will be balloon artistry, crafts, face painting, tattoos, and free snacks. Attendees may also wander our Book Patch and select a free, brand-new book, take photos in the Picture Patch, and play lawn games. Bumpers & Books is free and open to the public. Children are encouraged to dress in costume to add to the festivities. For more information, contact Kim Balentine at (860) 441-6750 or [email protected].
