Throwback Thursday: Hula Hoops! The hula hoop took Sandusky by storm in 1958. "Everybody" had one -- you can see proof in these photos taken by Alden Wintersteller of a hula hoop contest in Sandusky Plaza in late August. Did you have a hula hoop?

This session, led by professional photographer Ian Adams, is packed with information on how to take great photographs with your iPhone. Registration is required at https://events.sanduskylib.org/event/16470694

Make sure you bring your phone, as this is a hands-on workshop!

Join us tomorrow evening to discuss this 2025 thriller! The book follows Sydney Singleton, a former journalist who investigates the 1960s disappearance of her aunt, one of six Black girls who vanished in North Carolina. While undergoing IVF, Sydney uncovers long-buried family secrets and confronts her own past trauma.

There will be no curbside snack from Wednesday, June 10 through Friday, June 12. We hope to resume our regular snack schedule on Monday, June 15.
