Wine, Wenches and Song

On Friday, October 28th, the West Liberty Public Library hosted an "adult only event" that was titled "Wine, Wenches and Song." Dinner and drinks were served to attendees, who were invited to experience Medieval tavern life in the library conference room. A guest speaker from the University of Iowa spoke about Medieval times. Participants were encouraged to come dressed in costume to win prizes. Director Janette McMahon reports that the event was a great success. Initially, the library had set a maximum number of participants, but they ended up having to increase the number of tickets they sold. Congratulations to the Library for pulling off such a creative event!
