DML's Block Party Promises a Day of Fun

Dayton Metro Library’s Brookville Branch is hosting a Block Party and Craft Fair, Saturday, June 17, 10 am-4 pm.

Community members can anticipate 60 vendor booths of local artisans with hand-made merchandise for sale, such as paintings, wood and metal works, and knit items. Food trucks and food vendors will also be on hand.

The Pink Ribbon Girls, the Kiwanis Club of Brookville, the Chamber of Commerce, Brookville Historical Society, and the Brookville Optimist Club will have booth space also, and the Mountain Dulcimer Society of Dayton will provide music approximately at 1 pm.

The Branch will be open regular operating hours from 9:30 am-6 pm with an information table set up to spotlight services and the “All Together Now” Summer Challenge. Patrons will be able to take a “behind the scenes” tour of the Branch to see where their items end up after being returned and can check out games to play in-house from the Game Lending Library.

The Children’s Librarian will be hosting children’s games and an interactive projector will project simulated games onto the floor for the younger kids. Families can take part in a selfguided “seek and find” hunt through the Branch that highlights different areas and little-known items that are available for check-out. Winners will receive a DML swag bag.

Parking at the Branch will be reserved for visitors with limited mobility, but additional parking will be available at the high school next door. The Brookville Branch is located at 120 Blue Pride Drive, Brookville. For more information, visit DaytonMetroLibrary.org or call the Library’s Ask Me Line at 937.463.2665.
