Drop-in Mahjongg game (every week when enough players rsvp and library is open).
All levels of experience welcome (beginners given instruction).
We play Asian/Chinese style (easier to learn than American mahjong & no need to purchase annual card).
We have multiple sets of tiles, so can accommodate extra players.
RSVP: text/call [207-572-2414](tel:207-572-2414) to confirm group is meeting on any given date. Or take a chance and drop-in (same time as Library's boardgame event so other games can be played).

New England's largest walk-through light show. 1 mile trail, over 2 million lights and trees wrapped heights of over 90 feet.

Note: our schedule varies and does not operate daily. It is on our website. Thanks!

The three-time Tony Award winning laugh riot Lend Me A Tenor follows the misadventures of Max and the Cleveland Grand Opera company. After preparing a lovely reception for Il Stupendo, the greatest tenor of his generation, for a one-night only performance in Pagliacci Max finds his star on the verge of death, the theatre in potential ruins, and worst of all his fiance has a thing for tenors! As Max dons the makeup to stand in for Il Stupendo, hilarity and mischief ensue.

"A furiously paced comedy with more than a touch of the Marx brothers … A marvelous combination of wonderful farcical moments and funny lines." – Time Out

Spirituals, hymns, hollers and work songs were sung either to express a yearning for a better life or gratitude for already having one. Guitarist Walter Parks, longtime sideman to Woodstock legend Richie Havens, is fascinated by this historical music’s universal applicability and power and appears tonight with his trio including Ada Dyer, currently out on tour with Bruce Springsteen (November 2025). Tonight, music presented in a swampy style, borrowing from blues, Southern Rock and gospel. An unforgettable midwinter concert, guaranteed to transport the audience from the icy shores of Maine!

The Book Sale features gently used books, CDs, DVDs and audio books - most priced at 50 cents to a dollar. The sale is held on the third Saturday of every month. All proceeds fund Cary Memorial Library scholarships awarded to Maranacook High School graduating seniors.
