The Tribal 20's
Tuesday, May 23, 6:00 PM IN PERSON
The 1920’s was a decade of paradox: a revolution in manners and morals that touched everywhere in America, and a conservative reaction evident in the rise of the Ku Klux Klan, the Scopes and Sacco and Vanzetti Trials, and the supremacy of the corporation. Our speaker is Dr. Stephen McGrath, Professor Emeritus of History at CCSU.

I am Zelda
Tuesday, June 6, 6 PM IN PERSON
Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald is often known as the insane flapper wife of F. Scott Fitzgerald, author of The Great Gatsby. However, she was more than just the beautiful muse and wife to one of the greatest authors of the 20th century.
This original play, written and performed by Rita Parisi, will pay tribute to an often misunderstood woman; a woman who was also a mother, an accomplished dancer, an exhibited artist and a published writer.
Be a Centennial Donor! We are holding a special fund drive in honor of the library's 100th anniversary. Our goal is to have 100 donors donate $100 (or more) between now and our incorporation date on May 23. All donors to this special campaign will be included on a commemorative donation poster that will be displayed in the front entrance to the library. You may choose to remain anonymous, if you prefer. Pick up a donation envelope at the library, or download one to donate by check, or donate online via PayPal. Help the library to continue our mission to provide books, programs and services to the Waterford community for the next 100 years! Thank you for your support!
