Families are invited to an allergen-friendly brunch with free student haircuts at the library. Come hear what we have in store for your school year!

The Librarians at Laman are so excited for school season - we have so much in store for our students, families, and educators this year!

To kick off the school year, we're inviting all our local school families to join us for brunch on Saturday, August 10th starting at 10 AM.

Come by the 2nd Floor Rotunda (accessible through the main entrance by stairs or elevator) for:

  • Pancakes with whipped cream and syrup!
  • Allergen-friendly parfaits (dairy and nut free) provided by FARE Neighborhood Initiative!
  • Free student haircuts provided by Goodfella's Barber College!

While you enjoy good food and even better company, you'll also have a chance to hear what the Library has planned for this school year. Our Children and Teen departments have full calendars, ready to bring your students in on the fun this fall. 

If you have any questions, please contact Bekah Smith (bekah.smith@lamanlibrary.org) or Jill Wheeler (jill.wheeler@lamanlibrary.org)
