The Friends of the Library, a dedicated group of volunteers, works tirelessly each year to support the needs of Monticello’s local library. Through various fundraising activities and community events, the organization provides crucial funding to the library’s programs, including the highly anticipated summer reading program. This annual program is just one of the many ways the Friends strive to keep our library an engaging and educational resource for Monticello residents of all ages.

In addition to funding the summer reading program, the Friends of the Library sponsors various activities throughout the year. In years past, the Friends have organized or co-sponsored popular events, such as a community concert in the park featuring country music’s Ryan Harmon, poetry contests, and special guest speakers. These events foster community engagement and a love for the arts, further enhancing the library’s role as a cultural hub in Monticello. (more…)

The Poe Show Fo’ Sho’ is to make the work of Edgar Allan Poe “come alive” for all. But when a mysterious stranger arrives the actors are left wondering who is this stranger and why does he have such an investment in making sure that the works of Poe are treated with dignity and respect?

How will he help our actors understand the power of his work? Will the stage manager ever get the actors back in the van and on the road to the next show?

Find out in The Poe Show Fo’ Sho’!
