Yankton Library We’ve Got A Friend In You BY TONYA OLSON Yankton Community Library Did you know that the library has a “Friends of the Library” organization? Friends of the Library groups exist nationwide to support libraries through fundraising activities and encouraging gifts to libraries. Our Friends group is responsible for many of the nice things we have in our building, including the comfortable chairs, kid’s puppet theater and wooden shelving where our first chapter books currently live. They also typically sponsor a performer for us during our Summer Reading Program. The Friends of the Yankton Community Library, like many other Friends groups, also host monthly book sales to raise funds for library activities and goals. Those book sales are the first Saturday of each month from 9:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. The next sale will be March 4. The Friends are always happy to accept gently used donations for the sale; books can be dropped off at the Circulation Desk, or you can call ahead and we’ll meet you around back if you have some boxes. We will also be hosting a special sale from March 29-31 in the Library Meeting Room, so look for more details on that coming up! The Friends are hosting their annual membership drive on March 12, 2017 with a Local Authors Event and Book Signing. The event will take place from 2 – 4 p.m. in the Library meeting room with light refreshments served. Participating Yankton authors include: Mark Adderley; Kathy Grow; Travis Gulbrandson; Bernie Hunhoff and the South Dakota Magazine staff; Brenda Johnson; Maxine Kinsley; Marilyn Kratz; James Reese; Loretta Sorensen; Randy Tramp; and Lois Varvel. For those that are interested, the authors will have books available for purchase and signing, but the event is free and open to anyone who wants to visit with the authors or learn more about the Friends of the Library organization. You may be thinking, “What about Gourmet Guys?” Fear not! Gourmet Guys lives on. We have decided to move the event to the fall. It is scheduled for Oct. 7, 2017, so save the date. Tickets and more details will be available as we get closer to the event. For those of you that may not know, Gourmet Guys is the annual fundraiser for the Friends group. We invite several local “Guys” to cook for us, while you explore the Library, listen to relaxing music and visit with friends. This will be our 9th year and we look forward to hosting you this fall. If you’re interested in joining the Friends of the Yankton Community Library but can’t make it to our March event, please reach out to Bob Nagy, Vice President and membership chair, or myself at tolson@ cityofyankton.org or 605-668-5275.

A theater residency could include classroom workshops or a full-length production featuring local students at the end of the week. In the visual arts, choose from pottery, painting, drawing, sculpting, murals and more. There are traditional arts residencies in American Indian hoop dancing and rodeo clowning.
