NEW Meet & Greet Series at Manchester District Library

submitted by Laura Wohlgemuth

During the months of September, October, and November, the Manchester District Library will be hosting Manchester’s local businesses, restaurants, and nonprofits at the MDL’s Meet & Greet Series to help promote all of the wonderful things Manchester has to offer.

Our first Manchester Meet & Greet will be on Friday, September 15, at 5pm featuring the nonprofit organization Manchester Farmers Market where you will get a chance to meet the new market manager, Dana Queen, and hear about her background as a farmers market manager as well as her future plans for Manchester Farmers Market. Come with your questions, suggestions, and ideas for the future of the Manchester Farmers Market. All ages are welcome to join us in the Library Lounge.

Dance Teacher and Owner of Dance With Heart Studios Anya Novesky will share her love of dance with a free mini dance class at the Meet & Greet on Friday, September 22, at 5:15pm. All ages are welcome to join in the dance or watch from the sidelines on the Library’s main level.

The next Manchester Meet & Greet will be on Tuesday, September 27, at 6pm, featuring the Community Resource Center (CRC), another local nonprofit organization. Come meet CRC’s new director, Carol Wotring, and hear what the CRC is all about, how people can participate, and how they can volunteer. We’ll end with a question-and-answer time. All ages are welcome to join us in the Library Lounge.

Local businesses are invited to sign up to participate, sharing a little bit about the organization, how it got started, a sample of products and/or food, how people can get involved if they’d like to, and anything else they would like to share. It can be as elaborate as a slideshow presentation or as simple as a 10-minute speech. The Meet & Greet will end with an open question-and-answer time.

If you are a local business and are interested in participating, please email Laura Wohlgemuth at lwohlgemuth@manchesterlibrary.info or call or text her at (586) 703-4549.

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
