Don't miss the PML Fall Festival THIS Saturday, October 1st 10am-2pm

We know no one wants to talk about the Red Sox…so we won’t even mention them, but this once.

We will say, however, that the Pollard has something that might cheer you up if you need it: our Fall Festival this Saturday October 1st from 10am-2pm. We have a great line up of fun for the whole family, including Elaine Kessler’s Fall Program, and facepainting for the kids and a reading of selected short stories by actor Brendan Murphy and others, and afternoon cafe featuring the folk/rock stylings of local legend Dave Norton for the grown ups. Plus a Friends of the Library Bake Sale and your chance to win an original painting by entering our “Food For Art” raffle. Bring nonperishable food items to the library for your chance to win! Proceeds to benefit The Greater Lowell Open Pantry.

Of course we understand if you need to take a drive to leaf peep or something and cool off and realign your jangled nerves, but you’ll want to come on back in time for this fun filled fest. And by the way, Lowell Open Studios is also happening this weekend so there’s really no reason on earth why you wouldn’t be coming to downtown Lowell! We’ll see you at the fest!
