Entertainment at the Librarypalooza

Library Lallapalooza & Book Bash

Every year the lallapalooza features live local music and entertainment. We've had a play, dance groups, jazz, swing, rock, folk, bluegrass, bagpipers, celtic, and poetry. Libraries house much more than books, and ours includes films, games, and puzzles as well as books. We hope to have a music collection as well, so our fundraisers feature musical groups. If you would like to perform at our next lallapalooza, please contact us at library [at] esterrepublic.com.

This year our entertainment lineup included local musicians and a fashion show.
