Holiday Events at the Vigo County Public Library<\/h3>\n

Feeling short on cash with the holiday shopping season? Most of the library’s event opportunities are absolutely free to attend!<\/p>\n

On December 5 from 4-5pm, head to the west branch of the library for Terre Haute Rocks: Holiday Edition<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Spread joy this holiday season with Terre Haute Rocks, a local group of enthusiastic rock painters who connect art and creativity with community. Participants will paint a rock of their own, then hide it for someone else to find. The participation guidelines for the Terre Haute Rocks project will be explained so you can continue to extend happiness to the community. Supplies will be provided!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
On December 6 and 7th, the Miracle continues!<\/strong> What would the holidays in the Haute be without Miracle on 7th Street? The Vigo County Public Library is participating in the beloved Miracle tradition by inviting your family to create a huge gingerbread house with extra large Lincoln Logs, make Megatile trees, launch snowballs, and help Spheros\u00ae pull a sleigh on Friday, December 6.<\/a> On December 7 come to the library for their Winter Workshop<\/a>, create handmade gifts including greeting cards using the Cricut and LED lights, ornaments for loved ones, and simple gifts for teachers, coaches, and other special people in your life. Gifts are free of charge! Supplies will be provided!<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Shop one of the largest book\/media sales of the year during the Friends of the Library Annual Holiday Book Sale<\/a>!<\/strong> Thousands of items will be available, including books with an average price of $1.00, gift items, DVDs, CDs, magazines, and more.

<\/div>\n
Get ready for holiday karaoke!<\/strong> <\/a>On December 20, grab your microphones and get ready to rock out for the holidays at West. Celebrate the sounds of the season, sing your heart out, and enjoy refreshments!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
What would the holidays at the library be without special mention of their holiday storytimes? Story time at the library is a great destination on days when kids are out of school, the cousins are in town, or you want to add something special to your holiday countdown calendar!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
