We made it! We’re in our 30s, and we figured it was time to celebrate.
On May 29th we’ll be re-dedicating the building at 9 AM, and then hosting family-friendly performers and entertainers for the rest of the day. There will be some light refreshments provided as well. Come wish the library a happy birthday with us as we get ready to celebrate one more trip around the sun. 🙂

Every third Saturday of the month, join us at 2:00 for LEGO Building Time! Keiki and their ‘ohana are invited to come down to Kīhei Library to play and be creative with other Lego fans.
Legos will be provided. There will be a suggested building theme, but you are free to let your imagination be your guide! Creations will be placed up in a public display case for everyone to admire, until the next Lego event. Creations should be able to fit within an 8 1/2″ x 11″ space so that there will be room for everyone’s creations in the display case.
