‘Imagination & Community’

May 2, 2019 Mary Jane Pitt Arts & Entertainment

“When we have children’s events, we tend to talk a lot about imagination,” Highland Falls Library Director Leslie Rose told the 50 or so people gathered downstairs in the library Sunday evening. “When we have adults with us, we tend to talk about community. That’s what this afternoon is, a gathering of friends, family and community.”
