A Rather Daring Experiment… 75 Years On
In 1951, Weston Library was described as “a rather daring experiment.” Seventy-five years later, thanks to the support of generations of readers, volunteers and community members, the library remains an important part of life in Weston.
To mark this milestone, we would be delighted if you could join us for a special afternoon of celebration.
Saturday 12 September
2:00pm to 4:30pm
The All Saints Centre, Bath
This event is also our opportunity to celebrate and thank the volunteers and trustees whose commitment, dedication and community spirit have helped secure the library’s future and continue to help it thrive today.
