Calling all kid entrepreneurs! Have a knack for creating beautiful art, crafting your own jewelry, or even making your own slime? We're inviting you to showcase your talent to the community at upcoming NMPL's Night Market event!
NMPL's Night Market event is one of our most popular programs of the year. This block party meets glow-in-the-dark fun meets shopping local businesses is the ultimate fall family fun extravaganza. This year, we're planning on making it bigger and better than ever. Local businesses, vendors, and artisans set up stands to sell their goods at the event, and we want to open this up to our kid entrepreneurs!

240 patrons showed up to the North Manchester Public Library's St. Paddy's Golden Egg Hunt! Kids ages 9 and up searched every square inch of the adult department, from looking behind books, to checking under cushions, to peering under furniture. Younger kids, ages 4 to 8, loved searching the children’s department, while babies and toddlers had a blast in the Chipper Chicks zone, where several soft toys, cushions, and pillows had been placed around the room with all the eggs. "I had a lot of great feedback from parents," said Sarah Morbitzer, Children's Department Manager. "One new family just moved here from Wisconsin and they absolutely loved the hunt and are excited to start attending Storytime!" "Within 20 minutes, almost all of the eggs were found, though we’re sure a few more will turn up over the next few weeks," said Jeanna Hann, Adult Department Manager "Three of the golden eggs never did get located, so keep an eye out the next time you’re at the library!"
