Sanibel library offering spooky fun for October
The Sanibel Public Library offers passes to four of the area’s popular attractions — the Bailey-Matthews National Shell Museum, Sanibel Historical Museum and Village, Golisano Children’s Museum of Naples, and Clinic for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife’s Visitor Education Center.
One pass per location may be reserved to check out with a library card. Loan period is one week.
For more information or to place a hold on a pass, call the library at 239-472-2483.
The Book Sale Room has new fiction, coffee table books, magazines, CDs and young adult books. Most books are priced under $4. In the lobby, there is a $1 per book sale with bestseller fiction.
Stop by to see a collection of 100 origami created by Cabe Rieck. Rieck is a self-taught artist and has been creating origami for about four years. Look in the display case on the east side, near the glass elevator. To learn how to make Ddakji, get “how to” instructions and paper near the East Service Desk. Sometimes called ttakji, Ddakji is a traditional South Korean game played using folded paper tiles.
In addition, a Sanibel-Captiva Art League exhibit is on display at the library until Nov. 22. It includes artwork by members Gloria Krekel, Mary H. Klunk, Donna Filomio, Dave Tomkins and Carolyn Johns.
The library also offers a display case to showcase unique and interesting collections. If you have a unique and interesting collection that you would like to share, call the library at 239-472-2483.
