July Library Events
The Friends of the Holliston Public Library will be sponsoring the Ultimate Robin Williams Experience on Saturday, July 27 at 6:30 pm. Roger Kabler performs a one-man show of Williams’ humor for all ages. The 1993 animated film Aladdin starring Williams as the genie will also be shown on the lower level with adult supervision for anyone needing babysitting during Kabler’s show. Refreshments are included. Both programs are free and everyone is welcome.
The film for Movie Monday on July 8 at 12:30 is the documentary Apollo 11 in honor of the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. The History Book Club will meet on Thursday, July 18 at 6:30. Participants are asked to share a book of history or biography they have read and enjoyed recently with the group.
Holliston residents are reminded that the library carries discount passes to local museums and attractions which can be borrowed at no charge with a valid library card.
