Hi,

Please see the attached February calendar of free events at the Mission Hills-Hillcrest/Knox Branch Library.  In addition to our usual storytimes, Tinker Tuesdays, book discussion groups, Dance Pants, LEGO, etc., we’ll have the following special events in February:

      • 02/04 (Sat.), 2:30 PM: Presidential Trivia with Richard Lederer. Get ready for Presidents’ Day with author, columnist, and former radio host Richard Lederer. He has written 50 books, including Presidential Trivia (now in its 3rd edition).
      • 02/11 (Sat.), 2:30 PM: C’est l’Amour Concert. You’ll feel like you’re in Paris, the City of Love, at this Valentine’s Day concert performed by Adrienne Nims and Mark Danisovszky.

Kids

      • 02/17 (Fri.), 3:30 PM: Movie. In celebration of Black History Month, kids and adults are invited to watch the family-friendly movie Akeelah and the Bee on the big screen in the Community Room. This heart-warming story of an 11-year-old girl living in South Los Angeles who discovers her talent for spelling bees stars Keke Palmer, Laurence Fishburne, and Angela Bassett.

I hope to see you at the library soon!
