This event will be held at the Pentucket Middle School in the library.
This event has been CANCELED due to illness.
Take a virtual tour directly from the pages of Roxie Zwicker's three books on New England’s legendary graveyards. Learn about Colonial and Victorian burial customs and beliefs and the ghost stories from some of the most beautiful and some long forgotten cemeteries in the northeast. Learn the symbolism and stories behind some of New England’s oldest gravestones.

Celebrate the spookiest season with a Silent Disco, hosted by the Teen Advisory Group! If you've never heard of a silent disco, it's similar to how it sounds. You'll receive some headphones when you walk in the door that will glow depending on what station you're listening to. Then, you just dance the night away along with your friends. We will be holding a costume contest (but costumes aren't necessary) and have a photo booth as well.
The Silent Disco will be held at the Merrimac Library* and is for teens only. Sign up is necessary as we will only have 30 headphones. Email Tracy Shaw at tshaw@merrimaclibrary.org or by calling 978-346-9441.
* You don't have to be a Merrimac resident to attend. This dance is for everyone, which includes West Newbury, Groveland, and beyond.
