THE FRIENDS OF THE JUNEAU PUBLIC

Adult programming and outreach was accomplished with funding for supplies, advertising costs, and prizes for author talks, theater productions, trailblazers book club, suicide prevention book club, summer reading challenges for adults, scavenger hunts, pride poetry reading, drop-in chess and tournaments, monthly game days, creative writing workshops, and a wills program. Funding also supported outreach programs that enabled the library to go out into the community such as sponsorship for alaska minicon, regular events at gruening park community center, monthly pop-up libraries at pioneer home, forget-me-not manor housing authority and twice a month at tlingit and haida elders lunches and a pop-up at the elementary school steam event curiosity unleashed, a table at each gold medal basketball tournament and celebration.
