Sweeping Promises with The Cowboys

All Spirit of ’68 shows will require all staff, patrons, and performers to provide proof of full vaccination. Patrons will be asked to show their valid vaccination card (photocopy or digital photo is permissible) when they arrive at the door for entry. Additionally, masks will be worn by staff at all times and will be required of all attendees when not eating and drinking.

All-Ages Day at The Ground Floor

Curious about The Ground Floor teen space, but you aren’t a teen? Patrons of all ages are invited to check it out on the second Sunday of the month––there’s a DIY design studio, video games, virtual reality, and more!

Bloomington Piano Project at the Library

Students at local high schools turned pianos into magical works of art through drawing, painting, photography, and sculpture via the Bloomington Piano Project. View the art and try your hand at playing!  Librarian Kevin MacDowell will play favorites by Hoagy Carmichael and Scott Joplin, and his own original compositions on Saturday morning from 10:30–11 AM. Pianos will remain in the Atrium through the end of the weekend for you to play! Piano themes include fairy tales and photography. Learn more about the Bloomington Piano Project. All ages.

3D Drop-Off Days

Using 3D-modeling software (like the free and user-friendly, Tinkercad), you can turn your digital designs into real-world physical objects! Bring in your STL or OBJ file for a 5-minute drop-off session, and we’ll print it for you*. Visit mcpl.info/3D for tutorials and resources. Please note, 3D printing takes time—you will need to return to the Library at a later date to pick up your creation. All ages.

*Print time restrictions and the Library’s 3D printer policy apply. One printed item per Library cardholder per month. For size constraints and other questions, email [email protected].
