Fall is a season of change, and there is plenty to discover at Marin County Free Library. All ten of our libraries have now completed their refresh projects. We invite you to stop by, explore the updated spaces, find a comfortable place to read or work, and see what is new at your local branch.

While you are visiting, experience Stewards of the Land, a traveling exhibit featuring portraits and stories from Marin’s Indigenous community. Created by the San Geronimo Valley Community Center’s Greenstitch Youth Climate Action Program, the exhibit celebrates Indigenous knowledge, care for the earth, and our shared responsibility to the natural world. The exhibit will travel throughout the library system this fall.

This season also brings opportunities to explore our community’s history. Mood of America features a rarely seen 1968 BBC film about school desegregation in the Sausalito Marin City School District. The screening will be followed by a panel discussion and community conversation about the film, its history, and the questions it continues to raise today.

Food is another way to bring people together. As part of our Latinx Heritage Celebration, join Chef Pastora Tugulinago of La Cuchara Orgánica in Quito, Ecuador, for a master class exploring Ecuadorian cuisine. Participants will have the chance to learn more about Ecuadorian culture and plant-based cooking.

These are just a few of the experiences waiting for you this fall. Visit your refreshed library, meet your neighbors, and discover something new at MCFL.
