Happy 50th Birthday Halifax North!

October 20, 2016 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

On September 24, 1966, a library branch opened its doors to the North End of Halifax and became an essential, lively hub of the community.

Join us for celebration, memories, cake, and light refreshments!

To commemorate and celebrate this special birthday, we have local historian, RCMP officer, and author, Craig Smith speaking to the history of the branch; poet laureate Rebecca Thomas honouring the achievement with a reading; and singer Cyndi Cain and her Youth Choir ringing in the day with song.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Room: Terry Symonds Auditorium
