Need some yummy treats for the family, as a hostess gift, or as a sweet surprise for someone special? Join us for the second annual Cookie Walk in support of the Friends of the Lunenburg Library.
Bakers interested in donating cookies (or baked good, candy, or holiday-type finger dessert) should bake 5-6 dozen of your favorite recipe. These can be dropped off after 12:00pm the day of the walk.
We are excited about this rewarding fundraising activity

3rd ANNUAL
SMALL WORKS @ THE LPL
For the third year, we will display a juried exhibit of artwork that is smaller than 11" in diameter. In hopes of spreading the joy of art to others, works for sale must be priced less than $100. Even if you don't buy anything, come see and enjoy the work of the talented and passionate local artists from our area.
This exhibit will hang until January 2, 2020.
Featured Venues for December
The Museum of Russian Icons is a non-profit art museum located in Clinton, Massachusetts. The museum opened in October 2006 as the private collection of Gordon B. Lankton. The collection includes more than 1,000 Russian icons and related artifacts, making it one of the largest private collections of Russian icons outside of Russia and the largest in North America.
The icons in the collection range in date from the 15th century through to the present, and covers almost the entire range of Russian icon images, symbols, and forms.

Fitchburg Art Museum (FAM)
The Fitchburg Art Museum (FAM) is one of the most treasured cultural institutions in Central New England and serves the cities of Fitchburg and Leominster, as well as the surrounding communities in North Central Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire. FAM was founded in 1925 through a bequest of artist, collector, and educator, Eleanor Norcross.
In 2012, FAM began its rotating contemporary New England artist exhibition program, thus connecting the strength of its historical collections with contemporary art practices. Each rotating, contemporary exhibition is accompanied by an interactive educational exhibit in the Learning Lounge, where visitors young and old can learn about what they are seeing in the galleries and better understand their own reactions to the exhibits.
FAM is continuing to work towards a goal of becoming New England’s first fully bilingual (English/Spanish) art museum by seeking to add bilingual printed collateral, website, social media, and docent tours.
The Friends of the Lunenburg Library are eligible to request Museum Passes to many museums, zoos, and living environments throughout the State.
Join the Friends today and experience these cultural activities.
