[photo of the crowd waiting in line for carriage rides] We got a really big crowd and had a lot of fun at our annual Christmas Open House this year. Hopefully you were here. If not, at least have a look through the photo gallery to see a sampling of what you missed. There are photos of the art show and tree, of the carriage rides, of the story time and the crafts, the ice sculptures, gingerbread houses, of our very special storybook guest, and of one of the music performances and the crowd it drew, among other things. You can see all the photos in our gallery.
[photo of gingerbread houses] The 2012 Gingerbread House Contest results are in. There were some really nice entries this year, so don't forget to check them out in the photo gallery.

National Library Week
We had a great time celebrating National Library Week this year. The pictures in our photo gallery don't do it justice (you really had to be here), but you can have a look at them anyway.

Teen Computer Animation Workshop
The library recently hosted a computer animation workshop for teens. We learned how to use the MIT Media Lab's Scratch programming environment to create interactive visual animations. We took photographs at this event, which you can see in our photo gallery.
