Upcoming Programs
Drawing classes for beginners meet Friday afternoons at 1:30 PM. All are welcome. Free Call for more information or stop by.
Wednesday April 29 4 – 7 PM
This event was organized and sponsored by Highgate Public Library as a way to help to make this year’s prom night sparkle for our local youth. Thank you to Highgate for sharing so that we may bring this opportunity to the young ladies of Richford, Berkshire and Montgomery.
* NO dresses will be handed out prior to this event (or before 4 PM). Those attending the event will not have access to the dresses until this time).
* If you are unable to make it on 4/29, you may stop in anytime after the 29th during library hours to check out the remaining dresses as long as they remain in Richford
* All those attending the event are asked to sign in.
* Only one dress per girl is allowed.
* Parents are welcome and encouraged to attend the event with their daughter.
* This event is on a first come first serve basis. Dresses will not be held or reserved for anyone. We also do not guarantee that every girl will find that perfect dress. We only have available what has been donated from the local community during our dress drive.
* If it is felt by library staff or Cailey’s Closet volunteers that you are in anyway breaking Library policy, you will be asked to leave the building immediately and without a dress.
* Our intention is to provide a fun filled afternoon for local youth.This is our first year trying this and are doing our best to make this program run smoothly. It may not be the perfect setup, but we hope that you enjoy yourself while you are here!
Cailey’s Closet is a dress recycling program brought to you by the Highgate Public Library. Our intention is to help reduce the financial costs associated with semi-formals and proms to families and young women across Franklin County.
If you have a dress that you are willing to donate, we’d love to add it to the collection. PLEASE have it to us no later than 2 PM on April 29th
