Hamilton North Public Library invites the public to a special Open House and Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for its new expansion, The Michael E. Jenkins Wing, on Sunday, March 22 at the Cicero branch, 209 W. Brinton St.
The open house starts at 1 p.m. in the Adult Area, with the ribbon cutting at 2 p.m. Directly following the ribbon cutting, the public is welcomed into the new wing, where the open house will continue until 4 p.m.
Named after Mike Jenkins, longtime HNPL Board member and retired Hamilton Heights teacher, the new wing houses a 125-person capacity meeting room, full kitchen, and a large makerspace. A makerspace is a place where creatives of all types can work in groups or alone on their projects. Both the new meeting room and the makerspace will be available for public rental and will be used to host library events for years to come. Each room boasts large windows for optimum lighting.
