Hickory Public Library is gearing up to introduce a new outdoor stage at Patrick Beaver Memorial Library with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Set to take place on Saturday, at 10 a.m., the event will quickly follow suit with a community drum circle led by Giving Tree Music—a treat suitable for all, regardless of age. According to a recent announcement by the City of Hickory, the stage is a fresh addition dedicated to enriching the cultural scene.
For those wanting to actively participate in the post-ceremony festivities, instruments are to be readily provided. This inclusive gesture ensures that anyone, with or without a drum in hand, can partake in the rhythm and melody of the day. Library Director Sarah Greene has emphasized that this event is "free and open to the public," extending an invitation to the entire community of Hickory to come together in celebration, as per the City of Hickory's announcement.
Located at 375 Third Street NE in Hickory, Patrick Beaver Memorial Library stands as a beacon of knowledge and community engagement. This latest investment into a communal space for performances and gatherings seems to cement its role as a hub for local cultural expression.
The library staff, alongside Giving Tree Music, are expecting a lively turnout for the ceremony and drum circle. It's an opportunity not only to witness the ribbon-cutting of a new physical space but also to actively engage in creating something harmonious in the community.
