Upcoming library events – May 2024
The Alternatives Library has a few exciting events happening during the first week of May!
Sunday, May 5, 2024 – 11:00am to 5:00pm
Find us at the Ithaca Book & Zine Fair at Buffalo Street Books! From their website:
This event celebrates the freedom of expression and publishing outside the mainstream. Independent publishers, zine-makers, artists, DIYers, and writers from around the region will show and sell their wares. Throughout the day there will be free workshops on topics such as creative writing, zine-making, bookbinding, printing, and more.
This event is part of the Community Arts Partnership’s Spring Writes Literary Festival.
