There are many more library programs happening in April:

Berkeley Bay Festival

Celebrate the San Francisco Bay at the Berkeley Marina and connect with the community through live music, food, and hands-on educational activities

This free family-focused event celebrates the Bay, its local wildlife, and the people and agencies dedicated to its protection. Over 30 environmental and wildlife conservation organizations from around the Bay will share their exhibits with the public. The Library will be there too!

 

Working together to make a great public library extraordinary...

Thank you Foundation & Friends!
