Library gala is planned

The Plymouth District Library will host an after-hours gala in celebration of its 100th year serving the Plymouth community. 

The gala will take place from 7 until 10 p.m. Saturday, April 29 and is for those 21 and older. Organizers said black tie is optional. 

Tickets for the evening are $100 per person and will include hors d'oeuvres, open bar with wine and beer, and live music in the stacks by the Kennebec Avenue Jazz Group. 

During this centennial year, the library is developing  plans to overhaul the outdoor environment at the facility, including more native and pollinator-friendly plantings and the addition of a natural amphitheater space for outdoor programming.

Proceeds from anniversary gala, along with generous contributions from the Wilcox Foundation and the Friends of the Plymouth District Library, will make this vision a reality, organizers said. 

Tickets for the event are now available at plymouthlibrary.org.
