The Millicent Library is thrilled to announce the launch of a series of community focus groups as part of its strategic planning process. This initiative offers an exciting opportunity to shape the future of library services for the Fairhaven community.
The first of two in person focus group will be held on Monday, October 7, at 6:30 PM in the Rita E. Steele Auditorium at the library. All community members are invited to participate and share their thoughts on how the library can evolve to better meet the needs of the community.
This is your chance to help identify opportunities and challenges as the library works to strengthen services and best support the informational, cultural, recreational and educational needs of the community.
Whether you're a frequent library user or a first-time visitor, your input is invaluable in helping the library create a roadmap for future growth and service improvements.
A second in person and a separate Zoom focus group will be announced soon. Additionally, the library will be releasing a survey in the coming weeks to gather even more community feedback.

Join us for an afternoon of traditional fiddling and community merrymaking at the Millicent Library! Since 2017, the Old Time Fiddle Session and Community Gathering has been a cornerstone of free, inclusive social music programming for the Southcoast communities.
About Old Time Fiddle Session and Community Gathering:
Since its inception, Old Time Fiddle Session has welcomed an ever-growing number of participants, fostering a vibrant community of musicians and enthusiasts. The event is open to the public and encourages people at any stage of their musical journey to join in. The session not only draws local talent but also attracts fiddlers from neighboring states and regions, creating a dynamic and diverse musical experience.
Over the past six years, the Old Time Fiddle Session has taken place in various prestigious locations, including the New Bedford Folk Festival, the Lloyd Center for the Environment, the NB Roots and Branches Festival, and several farmers markets across the Southcoast. During the pandemic, the session continued virtually, ensuring that the music and community spirit thrived.
