Ever wondered why contestants on competition shows panic when they come down to the end of their time limit? Well, the designers from our Youth Theater Class: Set Design Studio found out! Turns out our imaginations had ideas that couldn't be accomplished in just an hour! After discussing the basics of scenic design, we read A House That Once Was by Julie Fogliano and divided into teams to design model boxes as if we were putting it on as a play. Thank you to everyone who spent time during their April Break with us - we love seeing so many faces!

National Library Week is coming to a close, and we have one more way for you to celebrate with us. Right now, the City is making important decisions about the annual budget - and McArthur Public Library needs your voice. If the library has made a difference in your life, we invite you to share your story and show just how important it is to our community. You can email City Councilors at: contactallcouncilors@biddefordmaine.org A few sentences can go a long way in helping to support the services you love.
