When you purchase your tickets for Navigating the World with Stories, which takes place on September 10 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the Pagosa Lakes Property Owners Association Clubhouse at 230 Port Ave. scheduled to take place, have not bought yet, do not wait . Don’t miss this unique event and the opportunity to spend an evening with friends while supporting our Mountains of Opportunity campaign to expand and refurbish your Ruby Sisson Library.
Tickets are $40 in advance and can be purchased both online and at the library (cash or check only).
Professional storyteller Kathy Santopietro will unpack a bundle of stories as she takes us on a journey around the world. Pagosa’s own pianist Sally Neel will accompany the stories with well-known and global melodies. Doors open at 6pm with a cash bar and entertainment. The stories start at 7:00 p.m. Light hors d’oeuvres and a cash bar follow.
Navigating the world with stories is suitable for children aged 16 and over. Tickets are $40 per person and can be purchased online at https://pagosalibrary.org/library-foundation/navigating-the-world-with-stories/ using a credit card. You can also buy tickets at the library with cash or check. Tickets at the box office are $45.
Although this event is for adults, Ms. Josie has scheduled two separate free storytelling programs at the Ruby Sisson Library to run concurrently on September 10th from 1:30pm to 2:00pm. Santopietro will run a program for older children from fourth grade upwards, while Mrs Josie will run a program for younger children. Enjoy these programs with your children and then look forward to the evening storytelling event starting at 18:00
Proceeds from the evening event support our Mountains of Opportunity campaign to expand and renovate your Ruby Sisson Library. Your public library is the center of our community, providing free programs, services, and resources to people of all ages and backgrounds. The current building opened its doors in 1989 and experienced its first major expansion in 2005.
As the needs and services of our ever-expanding community evolve, the library is now preparing to expand its current building by 50 percent to 11,300 square feet. The expansion will feature a community room, a dedicated room for children’s literacy programs, a room exclusively for teens and tweens, private study rooms, an intergenerational hands-on study room, easy access to the self-service checkout, and a lovely reading corner in the outdoor garden. To learn more about Navigating the World with Stories or our campaign, please contact Cindi Galabota at (970) 264-2209 or [email protected]. We hope to see you on September 10th.
