Three easy ways to request items for curbside pickup:

2) Decide upon what day you want to pick up the item(s) and inform the person on the line of this day,

3) Your item(s) will be placed on a cart or table outside of the library on the day of pickup. No need for entry into the Library.

Voila! Easy P’easy!

Free Live Stream Concert: Hot Club of Saratoga!

Saturday, November 21st at 7 pm

Calling out to all Adirondack residents and visitors: Join us here online for our first ever Live Stream Concert! Share with your friends–Socialize online during the concert!

From their living room to yours, the Hot Club of Saratoga, the Capital Region’s premier gypsy swing ensemble, plays a repertoire that reflects the spirit and style originated by Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli in The Quintet of the Hot Club of France. Most prominently developed in 1930’s and 40’s Paris, this genre has been kept alive through a long line of gypsy jazz artists since that time. Most of the tunes Hot Club of Saratoga plays were written or recorded by Django at some time in his musical life, hot swing music of the 1920’3, 30’s and 40’s.

We will add the Live Stream link here when we have it. Chat will be available during the concert.

This project is made possible with the funds from the Decentralization Program, a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo and the New York State Legislature and administered by the Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts.

Join us for an evening of rousing fiddle and guitar!

Saturday, February 22 @ 7pm at the CVWLong Lake Public Library

Join us for an evening of rousing fiddle and guitar!

Alex Smith grew up in Long Lake, in the rural heart of New York’s Adirondack Park, and his music strives first and foremost to echo the people and culture of that area. He builds songs from a blend of traditional folk harmony and strikingly
modern lyrics, confronting today’s most pressing issues with a style of honest and accurate observation often compared to songwriters Stan Rogers and Jason Isbell.  Smith’s mother is a historian and his father is a writer and boat builder. Their influence is evident in his attention to detail: each of Smith’s characters lives and breathes a balance between beauty and imperfection. His stories draw on the triumphs and hardships of friends, relatives, and neighbors near and far.  Smith is truly a “working musician,” playing nearly 200 a shows a year.
