The sign-up for “Literary Elements,” the summer reading program for

remember: YOU DO NOT HAVE TO COMMIT TO READING A CERTAIN NUMBER OF
BOOKS. Read whatever you wish. Weekly drawings began July 14.
Artist Flo Parlangeli’s work is currently on display at the library
through July 26. Originally from New York, Ms. Parlangeli grew up
as a dancer and with a love of the arts. After raising her family
and pursuing her profession in advertising, she painted for
pleasure, often land and seascapes. Most recently she has taken up
Plein Air painting on the coasts of Florida, New Hampshire and
Maine, producing dramatic original oil works.
Concurrently, in the display cases, is the jewelry of Judy Bush who
has been interested in and worked with beads ever since as a child
she observed her mother stringing beads in bed in the evenings (in
the days before television!) Her items are rich in color and
texture, and she enjoys creating ones that are free form with no set
vision of the finished item. Since retirement from UNH Cooperative
Extension, she can be found four days a week at the Bead Bush Studio
on Mt. Delight Road in Deerfield.

Epsom Food Pantry
Well, summer is in full force and the Pantry is going just fine. We
look forward to the fresh veggies that will soon be coming in.
This week was just a banner week for us as the Elks Lodge has
donated a tidy sum to us. We will be receiving it in food and those
wonderful folks took a list of our most needy items and went
shopping. Quite a sight when it was delivered and so so appreciated.
A picture will be forthcoming for you to see. Now remember if you
cannot get to us, just call and we will deliver. We do not want
anyone going hungry.
Until next time,
Priscilla
