Events

In addition to its annual meeting, the JTEL holds several community events and fundraisers each year that serve to keep the library operating or just to have a great time. These are examples of what has been hosted in previous years:

  • Seedy Saturday – a seedsavers’ get-together and seed donation/checkout event!
  • Garlic sales – usually in the fall every year, we sell several different varieties.
  • Memorial Day plant sale – annuals and perennials, edible and non-edible, come on down to get some for your garden!
  • SuperHeroes Night Out – a silent auction with hundreds of goods from Fairbanks area businesses, combined with a rollicking good time and dancing to a live band!
  • The LiBerry Music Festival & Berry Pie Throwdown – live music, a berry pie contest and lots of pie to eat!

Groups

We currently host several special interest groups: a writer’s, knitters and a music group, and are always open to more suggestions – if interested, please contact us at info@esterlibrary.org.
