Peter Boie Magician for Non-Believers -Family Fun Day July 20 Saturday 7pm

Combining original mind-blowing magic, and a heavy dose of humor is Peter’s secret to success and why it’s made him one of the top booked college acts around the country.

Peter first became fascinated with magic at the age of eleven when he stumbled across a magic book at his local library. He now travels around the country performing his award-winning magic that will defy your reality. Peter’s show is about two things, astonishing magic, and having a good time; and he doesn’t skimp on either. The title Magician for Non-Believers is about being honest with his audience. Magic isn’t real… but Peter will make you believe it is for the length of his show.

AUTHOR SERIES-Betty Culley & The Name She Gave Me Sunday, July 21 5pm

A heartbreakingly beautiful novel in verse about adoption, family, friendship, and love in all its many forms, perfect for fans of Robin Benway and Jandy Nelson, from the acclaimed author of Three Things I Know Are True.

Rynn was born with a hole in her heart—literally. Although it was fixed long ago, she still feels an emptiness there when she wonders about her birth family.

As her relationship with her adoptive mother fractures, Rynn finally decides she needs to know more about the rest of her family. Her search starts with a name, the only thing she has from her birth mother, and she quickly learns that she has a younger sister living in foster care in a nearby town. But if Rynn reconnects with her biological sister, it may drive her adoptive family apart for good.

This powerful story uncovers both beautiful and heartbreaking truths and explores how challenging, yet healing, family can be.

Author Series is sponsored by Bridgton Books and created by a collaboration of Denmark Historical Society, Denmark Library & Denmark Arts Center & a generous community ANGEL who thought to pay it forward – so much thanks!
