The annual Edible Book Feast Celebration is a fun, wacky, weird and yummy way to celebrate books, and it’s being celebrated at the Library on Saturday, August 10 from 1:30 to 3:30.

What is an Edible Book Festival? It’s an opportunity to create an edible representation of a literary work.

Be Classic!

“A Farewell to Arms” by Ernest Hemingway:

Be Punny!

“The Silence of the Yams” by Thomas Harris:

Register here (or use the QR code below) and bring your edible representations to the library where awards will be presented for your creations. We’ll end the celebration by “eating our words”. Everyone is allowed to partake in eating the exhibits after the judging. Thank you to Bookworks in Whitefish for sponsoring this beloved event.

Montana Wild Wings makes its annual visit to the Library on Thursday, July 25, at 10:30 a.m.

Come to the Library’s east lawn to see raptors that Wild Wing rehabilitates, but unfortunately can no longer live in the wild. You’ll be able to observe and photograph these magnificent birds. Bring a lawn chair or a blanket to sit on, as we’ll form rows for the Wild Wing volunteers to walk down displaying winged raptors of all kinds. (ALL AGES)
