Just for fun

 Calling all super sleuths!! You’ve been formally invited to a modern-day masquerade at the Berkeley Public Library, October 21st 3:00pm. Enjoy an afternoon consisting of masks, mayhem and murderers masquerading as partygoers. There’s been a murder in the mystery room and we need your help to solve it!! Join us in playing an interactive murder mystery game presented by a local murder mystery company, the Clue Collective. Can you guess which partygoer is the murderess or murderer before they slip away?

From autoharps to zithers, Jim Carter's Amazing Musical Instrument Petting Zoo has it all! Come bang the bodhran slowly or grab a glockenspiel. Let the music take you everywhere! All ages welcome!

This event is generiously sponsored by The Friends of the Library.  Masks are required inside the Library.

Chess is one of the oldest games still played. It is known around the world as "The Game of Kings."  We like it because you can start playing right away and study it for a lifetime.  The Tarea Hall Pittman South Branch is hosting a Chess Club for all ages and experience levels.  If you like to play chess or would like to learn, come join us for a fun afternoon. The Library will provide everything you need to play chess inside our Community Meeting Room.
