Making Sense of the Capitol Riot and Presidential Impeachment – Books Can Help

We aren’t able to hold our annual Triple Threat Trivia fundraiser this year, but we couldn’t let this year go by without an opportunity to challenge the minds of Malden! Join us on Thursday, January 28th at 7PM to play with old friends or make new ones as you take on fun and family-friendly questions that will surely get you thinking. Sign up here by Monday, January 25th.
If you have questions, please call 781-324-0218 or email Jean at jslavkovsky@maldenpubliclibrary.org.
This event is sponsored by the Trustees of the Malden Public Library.
This special music program is being presented by the Maud Powell String Institute. Join us on Saturday, January 16, at 2:30pm for an hour of fun and educational activities, learn about the Violin Family instruments, and listen to some cool examples. Violinist Dorisiya Yosifova, a member of the Institute’s string faculty, cannot wait to play violin for you! Recommended for ages 5-10.
This event will take place virtually via Google Meet. Interested participants should email the Children’s Librarian rsmith(at)maldenpubliclibrary.org to receive the Google Meet invitation and to request a cardboard instrument which can be picked up in advance.

More Binge Boxes are on their way!
Join Librarians Patrick and Jean to play Jackbox games online!
These games can be played online and all you need to be able to do is have a computer or smart phone and a way to join the Zoom call. The games are about 20-30 minutes each and skew towards humor and trivia topics.
When you are staying at home, we hope you can take some time out for yourself. We are giving away color pencils and coloring pages for you to put colors on papers and to uplift your days. Each package contains 5 color pencils and 5 coloring pages. De-stress and unleash your creativity. Adults only and while supplies last. To reserve your package and pick it up curbside, please call the library at 781-324-0218.
Get ready to celebrate the New Year with this stunning black-and-gold paper spiral! Adults, teens and tweens, and older children (ages 8-9, with adult help) can learn how to make these wonderful decorations. The “take-and-make” bag contains folded paper to make two large paper spirals. Get a glue stick and scissors, and you’re ready to create this special craft. One bag per person, while supplies last.
To reserve a bag, call the library at 781-324-0218 during regular hours and schedule a contact-less curbside pickup time.
The Malden Public Library will be closed for curbside delivery on Thursday December 17 due to the snow storm. We will be open for curbside service at our regular hours on Friday and Saturday (10-2).
