Proceeds from the event help sustain and expand the library’s programs, including youth education initiatives, community programming, arts and cultural events, and resources that serve residents across Homestead, Munhall, and West Homestead. In addition to raising funds, the event strengthens partnerships between the library, local businesses, artists, and community organizations.
This year’s event also highlights recent improvements and investments in the library’s facilities.
