The library has partnered with the museum to enable you to take a trip through time as you explore the artifacts that we have on display. The collection is especially unique to Lumby history. Thank you to the museum for putting the display together.
The library is pleased to be partnered with the local talent and strives to display a new artist each month. On the last Saturday of the month the artist will be available from 12:00 to 1:00 to either demo their process or speak to the public about their processes.
