Join us at Libby Library in OOB on Thursday, October 16th at 5:30 pm for an informational Homeschooling Parent Night!

This program is aimed at homeschooling parents, or those who may be interested in homeschooling in the future. Come learn about all the resources, programs, and opportunities the library has to offer that can help you make your homeschooling journey a success. The library is so much more than books!

This program is free, open to the public, and no registration is required.

An informative–and slightly spooky–lamplight tour of York’s Old Burying Ground. The lives of those buried within the hallowed walls of the historic cemetery will be illuminated by guides dressed as 18th-century townsfolk. There are more than 100 gravestones within the burying ground, each with a story to tell about a life–and a death.

Please note that this tour lasts approximately an hour and takes place outside after dark, so please dress warmly. The terrain is uneven, and comfortable walking shoes are recommended. This program is not recommended for those with mobility issues. Guides will have lanterns, but it is recommended that guests bring their own flashlights.

Tour begins promptly at the Lindsay Road entrance to the Museum Center, so please arrive no later than 5 minutes prior to check in. Because the tour size is limited, if you do not check in by the start time of the tour, your ticket may be released to someone on the waiting list. No refunds can be issued within 24 hours of the event.

Step into the shadows of Community Little Theatre, where spirits of the past come alive and stage lights flicker. Are you ready to uncover the sinister secrets lurking behind the curtains?
This is not a guided tour—this is a journey into fear. Follow a path through the theatre’s most haunted spaces. Beware: scare actors and jump scares hide behind every corner. Nothing will shield you from the terror waiting in the dark.

Join Belfast Bay Watershed Coalition and Shannaghe for this new film about a slippery enigma that lives here in Maine. Swimming across history, oceans, and cultures, the American eel is tiny, slimy, and incredibly valuable to Maine. It fuels our second largest fishery--a $20 billion industry—and also faces some challenges, including dams. From Maine harvesters to Asian aquaculturists, and from unagi experts to scientists, the elversphere captures the dynamics, surfaces a web of relations, and offers unexpected perspectives on ecological and societal crises.
