Next week in Teen Group- Summer is over and it's time to meet in the Teen Center to talk about books! We'll talk about the books we love, the books we hate, and share recommendations for books to save you from cabin fever when you're trapped indoors this winter. What are your all-purpose must-reads and what are your boredom-emergency recommendations? What's in your TBR? Come and talk about it!

This program is part of our weekly Teen Group, a social club for teens ages 13-19. Meet in the Teen Center for a different activity every week. Arts and crafts, acting games, cooking classes, book talks, gaming, art walks, and more. No registration required. Free.

Two chances to see contemporary Americana duo, The Montavles! Thursday, October 8, 2026 right here at the Library & a second performance on Friday, October 9 at our partner’s site, Historic Salem Courthouse in Salem, NY. Both concerts are free & start at 7:00 PM, doors open at 6:30 PM.

Born and raised in Knoxville, Sally Buice and Molly Rochelson of The Montvales spent much of their formative years busking amidst the Elvis impersonators and musical saw players of the town’s Market Square. Some fifteen years later, the two are still at it. Their lyrics tackle everything from heartbreak to gentrification to abortion rights, pulling audiences in alongside their well-worn harmonies and nearly telepathic musical connection. This duo has built a strong connection between activism and music, resonating deeply with audiences across Kentucky, Ohio, Texas, and Tennessee while staying true to their Appalachian roots. Their newest album, “Path of Totality” (2026) does not shy away from the weight of political strife and catastrophe, opting instead to boldly confront it, bringing to bear the power to unite us all. It is currently charting as one of the “best country music” records on Bandcamp.

Live! Folklife Concerts are produced, hosted and recorded (for our YouTube page) by the Folklife Center at Crandall Public Library, made possible in part by a grant from the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Governor's Office and the New York State Legislature.
