Halloween Costume Swap

All month long, donate your gently used and clean costumes or accessories for ages 0-100 to either branch, or stop by the Main Library to choose a costume to keep. When we say ages 0-100 we mean bring your infant costumes! Bring your teen costumes! Bring your adult costumes! Halloween isn't only for children. Let's all share in the spirit!

  • Drop off locations: Main Library (Children’s Room) and McAuliffe Branch (Circulation Desk)
  • Pick up location: Main Library only, Children’s Room

Turtle Sand Painting

Navajo sand painting has its roots in traditional Navajo medicine and ceremonies. Join us in learning about the practice and history while making your own turtle paintings in honor of Native American Heritage Month and to celebrate Fred’s Birthday month.

All Ages

Our Commitment to Cultural Respect: At Framingham Public Library, we believe in honoring and respecting all cultures. This event aims to educate participants about the cultural significance of sand painting while promoting understanding and appreciation for the Indigenous Peoples that paint them. Our activity is designed to inspire creativity while fostering cultural sensitivity and respect.
