Learn to Play the Guitar!

July 22, 2020 , 12:00 pm - 12:00 pm / Framingham Public Library YouTube Channel

Wednesdays July 15 - August 19

Have you ever wanted to learn to play the guitar? It's time to check-off your bucket list! This summer, we have partnered with Centre Music House to offer beginner guitar lessons. All you have to do is grab a guitar and join us. Each week, we will post a lesson to the Library's YouTube channel. You can practice as many times as you would like and email us with any questions. Our instructor will respond to them via a live Q & A session. At the end of the summer, we will get together for a fun Zoom session where everyone will have a chance to play.

Please email hlui@minlib.net to register and receive weekly lesson plans. For more information, click here.

Wingmasters: Falconry and the Medieval World

July 22, 2020 , 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm / Facebook Live

While this presentation centers around live birds used in falconry, it is not a flight demonstration but a history-rich look at an ancient sport. Focusing on the medieval period, it explains the characteristics of the birds of prey used, how the spot reflected the lifestyle of the time, and the historical reasons behind falconry's rise and fall.
