Library Knitting Group
7:00 PM - 8:30 PM

An informal knitting group will meet at the library which offers an opportunity for people to get together, bring a project to work on, and have others nearby for occasional advice.   Knitters and all other fiber artists are invited to attend.  Please note that this is not a knitting class for beginners, but instead an opportunity to share current knitting projects with others, to make new friends, and to learn tips and tricks at the same time.

If you would like to be added to the coordinator's Email list for updates, send a message to jhlady@milton.ocln.org and she will connect you with the group.  This program is kindly sponsored by the Friends of the Milton Public Library and is free and open to all, but is geared mostly to adult knitters.  No advance registration is required - just come, work on your project and meeting new friends!

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS THE FINAL MEETING FOR 2024.  (More dates to come in 2025...)

Join us in a professional forum for networking with peers in a safe and comfortable environment conducive to developing new relationships and developing skills and strategies to help in your career transition.  Each meeting features a new topic.  Meetings include a presentation and interactive workshop on topics relevant to career transition, guest speakers, access to hiring managers, small group breakout rooms to network, and 1-on-1 coaching guidance.  Participating on a regular basis will give job seekers the many tools and strategies needed for a successful job search.

Each biweekly meeting is facilitated by Deborah Hope, MBA, PCIC, an experienced executive career coach.  Deborah is a former Fortune 500 executive, investment banker and entrepreneur.  She transitioned to executive coaching over 12 years ago.  Deborah has coached with Harvard Business School Executive Education programs and the Massachusetts Conference for Women.  She has been trained or certified in a variety of coaching models and assessment tools.  Deborah has facilitated 50+ job seekers networking groups since 2016.

In Person Author Talk: The Christmas Tree Shops with Anthony Sammarco
7:00 PM - 8:30 PM

This will be a one-hour author talk with Anthony Sammarco about his new book called: "The Christmas Tree Shops" (c2024).  

The Christmas Tree Shops was not just an icon of New England, but it was a destination with stores that boasted a diverse assortment of merchandise from seasonal decorations, home decor, housewares, food, giftware and just about everything else that the public just had to have.  These were items you never thought you needed before stepping through the door, but who could resist a bargain?  Founded in 1970 in Yarmouthport, it was "like walking into a closet full of surprise treasures."  One never knew what he might find, but the public, always on the hunt for bargains, began to find goods that not only pleased but stretched one's budget.  The word-of-mouth advertising attracted customers to Cape Cod, who returned time and time again, never sure what they might find. This was what made the shop popular and was to create a sensation on Cape Cod.

Copies of Anthony's book will be for sale at the end of this lecture.  We hope you will join us.  No signup is required - just come and bring your friends and family to enjoy an entertaining presentation about local history!

This program is kindly sponsored by the Friends of the Milton Public Library and is free and open to all.
