The Friends of Bluffton Public Library are hosting their annual Spring Tea and Silent Auction on Tuesday, May 6. The guest speaker will be local author Dave Essinger, who has published two novels.
The elegant, formal tea will be held at 6:00 p.m. in the library’s Richland Room on the lower level.
Tickets are $20 (cash or check) and will be sold at the library, 134 S. Main St., starting on Tuesday, April 1. The event has limited seating.
Essinger vividly remembers sheltering under school cafeteria tables for “fallout dills” in case of nuclear war, and has been more or less expecting the world to end ever since. His new post-apocalyptic novel This World and the Next is available from Main Street Rag Publishing Company in print and Amazon Kindle in ebook.
Bluffton Public Library, 145 S. Main St., has announced the following programs and events for April 2025. Have questions? Call the library at 419-358-5016.
