Dig into Reading!

School-aged children are invited to join Bayard Public Library’s Summer Reading Program and attend the fun programs and events we are planning. This summer’s theme, Dig Into Reading! will be filled with hands on activities like adobe brick-making, planting, creating Terra cotta pots, doing fossil studies, and of course, reading! It's free and open to school-aged children of all abilities. The program will be held from 10:00-12:00 at The Bayard Public Library; sessions may be extended for special projects or guest speakers. The 6 week program will begin on Tuesday June 11th and will be held every Tuesday and Thursday through Thursday July 18th. While at the library, a parent or guardian must stay in the library with children aged nine or younger. Stop by the library and register your child today.

Colcha Stitching

A Colcha Stitching Presentation with Monique Durham will be held on Saturday June 8th at 11:00.

We will step back in time from India, Portugal and Spain, before the New Mexican colonial area, to explore the history of the designs and the provenance of the colcha stitch, this unique American Southwest folk embroidery.

Q&A are welcomed and encouraged after the lecture.
