 Daniel Millard has joined the library as Lopez’s new Community Alchemist! In this position, Daniel will work to expand and enhance the library’s program offerings to meet the needs of our community, and to explore the possibilities of creativity and learning in the library. Since moving to Lopez in 2020, Daniel has become integrated into the artistic community and come to know the brightness and generosity with which the people of this island share their skills, insights, and hearts with their neighbors. They look forward to collaborating closely with the community, library volunteers, staff and board members to foster this generous spirit. Daniel, a two-time Puzzlepalooza runner-up, is a steadfast believer in the value of play in the service of creativity, learning, and deepening relationships. They hope that their contributions will help to make the library, and the community as a whole, a playful and vibrant environment of exploration. Please come out to the library to meet and welcome Daniel!

FHFF Best of the Fest: Sitka's Hidden Wonders (at LCCA) - Friday, April 24, 7pm Lopez Library will host a screening of the feature film Sitka's Hidden Wonders, followed by the short film From Sea to Shining Sea at the Lopez Center for Community and the Arts. Sitka's Hidden Wonders is a theatrical nature film that blends sweeping cinematography with a deeply personal story of return. Told by award–winning wildlife filmmaker Ben Hamilton, the film explores what it means to truly see a place—through the hidden layers of one of Alaska’s wildest coastal ecosystems. From Sea to Shining Sea explores the rich life of poet, professor and social reformer Katharine Lee Bates, author of AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL. As we approach the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, Bates’ story reminds us of the beauty and ideals of our nation as well as its shortcomings and honors the unbroken chain of Americans striving to live up to those ideals. |
