Library For All provides monthly, interactive programs that welcomes adults with disabilities to make crafts, create art, play games and explore the library.

Learning Christmas Traditions,

We will read stories about the traditions of the Christmas season learning how other countries celebrate the holiday. We will also make jingle bell windchimes.

To register for this program, please call Jody DeGroat or Laurie Angle at 845-986-1047 ext. 3. Participants must be accompanied by a caregiver who will stay with them throughout the program.

The Pretty Committee will show you how to use old sheet music to create beautiful Christmas trees just in time for holiday decorating!  Bring in a glue gun if you have one.

Music Socials are offered for people with early- and middle-stage Alzheimer's Disease with their family caregivers. Certified Music Therapist Melinda Burgard leads the interactive groups, in which participants may explore music history as well as their own individual musical histories.  Groups may play instruments, sing along or move to the music.  Refreshments will also be served.

(2005) Starring Daniel Bruhl and Diane Krueger. In 1914, World War I - the bloodiest war ever at that time in human history - was well under way. However on Christmas Eve, numerous sections of the Western Front called an informal, and unauthorized, truce where the various front-line soldiers of the conflict peacefully met each other in No Man's Land to share a precious pause in the carnage with a fleeting brotherhood. This film dramatizes one such section as the French, Scottish and German sides partake in the unique event.  Rated R; 116 min.
