The Great Pumpkin Show
Join us for The Great Pumpkin Show, where creativity meets community! People of all ages are invited to decorate their own pumpkins at home and bring them to the library for a special display.

Here’s how it works:
1. Grab a pumpkin from a local farm or store. Choose your favorite size and shape!
2. Get Creative: Use paint, markers, glitter, and other craft supplies to decorate your pumpkin*. Let your imagination run wild—go for spooky, silly, or seasonal designs!
3. Between October 15th and 18th, bring your pumpkin to the library. We’ll have a designated area to display all your creations!
4. All pumpkins will be on display until November 1st. You can pick up your pumpkin between November 1st and 5th.
*Note: Please don’t puncture or carve your pumpkin. We will dispose of rotting pumpkins!

Little Free Libraries

Little Free Libraries are small, community-based book exchange boxes found in parks, neighborhoods, and outside homes or businesses. These libraries operate on a "take a book, leave a book" principle, encouraging people to share their favorite books with their neighbors and fostering a love of reading within the community.

There are several Little Free Libraries around Fayette County! Use the map to find a list of Little Free Library locations near you, or see below for Little Free Libraries supplied in part by the library.
