The MRV Libraries invite you to test your knowledge with our next virtual trivia night! And to bring out the fun in all of us, we encourage you to dress up as your favorite character - Johnny, Stevie, Alexis, Roland, Moira or anyone else who lights up your life. Joslin's Second Solstice Tea Party! December 19th, 4-5:30 pm Help us welcome in longer days with songs, a shadow puppet show, fire, and tea. |

Virtual Trivia nights with the Mad River Valley Libraries are back!
From the comfort of your own home test your knowledge of all things local. We will be asking questions about people, places and histories of Moretown, Waitsfield, Fayston and Warren. And to kick off the ski season there will be plenty of questions about our ski areas too. It’s fun, relaxing, a bit challenging and a great way to spend part of your Thursday evening. Please register by noon on December 9 to receive login information. You are welcome to register as an individual or as a team with others from your household. We invite you to hear and share your stories and poetry inspired by the pandemic. Last summer, the MRV libraries sponsored the MRV Pandemic Story Project. Submissions were collected and have now been published in a book. Some of the authors will be sharing their pieces on November 21 from 2 -3:30 p.m. at Toast and Eggs on Main Street in Waitsfield. All are welcome to share a piece whether it was submitted or not.
