Library's Centennial Celebration: Mayor greets attendees at the anniversary event held at City Square
Halle's city library is gearing up for a grand celebration as it marks its 120th anniversary. The festivities will culminate on Saturday, June 21, with a Family and Festival Day at the Hallmarkt and the Central Library.
The day promises a fun-filled event for all ages, with a variety of activities designed to engage and entertain. Children will have the opportunity to enjoy a bouncy castle, giant chess, creative workshops, an upcycling workshop, a VR station, and a visit to the mobile library with a photo opportunity at the wheel.
Adults, meanwhile, can immerse themselves in a print workshop that encourages analog creativity, or browse through a book sale by the Friends of the City Library and an exhibition on the history of the city library.
Music, theater, interactive activities, and culinary offerings will add to the festive atmosphere. Not to be missed is the performance of "The Tears of the Mermaid" by "The Magic Carpet" at the reading courtyard, and the chance to witness Toni Geiling, Micha Kost, and Salon Pernod perform live on stage during the festival week.
In addition, the city library has launched a photo contest named "Your View of Us!" The contest seeks photos that illustrate the diversity of the city library and how it is experienced. The deadline for submissions is June 20, and entries can be sent to jubi-wortakrobaten@unsere Website or dropped off directly at the Central Library.
