We have a new calendar! We’re experimenting with including free cultural and educational events at other local and regional libraries, museums, and non-profits. We hope a compilation of these great events will be a valuable resource for our community. Click on the categories above the calendar to limit the results by drive time from the Bolton Free Library. Be sure to check the hosting organization’s website for schedule changes and cancellations. Note that some of the events at and within 10 minutes of our library are not free; these are denoted with a “($)” and costs are included in those descriptions.
Check back often for updates and let us know what you think!

The concert day will include programs and events in and around the park, including violinists and country fiddlers of all kinds along with visual artists, history and walking tours, and accessible recreational activities. Artisanal foods and beverages from the region will also be featured, community organization tables and activities, a fine art sale and more in the Hudson Crossing field leading to the Symphony’s performance at dusk.
