New library feature topic of Coffee and Conversation
CRANBERRY TWP — A major new library feature will be the focus of an informal Coffee and Conversation get-together with Jerry Andree, township manager.
The event, set from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Jan. 29 in the Cranberry Public Library, will focus on the library upgrade, which is CTCC’s Project of the Year for 2019.
It includes a variety of enhancements, including better lighting, automatic sliding doors and new carpeting.
The signature improvement will be the addition of a new MakerSpace — a flexible shop space with multiple workstations as well as material and tools for creating a variety of collaborative projects.
The MakerSpace will be the primary focus of the Manager’s Coffee event, which will include demonstrations by four people associated with the advancement of other Makerspaces in the region as well as samples of projects completed there. Guest participants will include Alan Bachmann, Rob Martin, Dave Coakley and Ryan Priore. Jessi Mazzoni, a local Web developer who is coordinating the crowdfunding aspect of the project, will also be on hand.
No reservations are required, however for planning purposes, those attending are asked to contact 724-776-4806, Ext. 1089.
