Saturday, April 30 is your last chance to donate gently used books and jigsaw puzzles for the arts council’s annual book sale. Still wanted are mysteries, self-help, childcare and art and design.
Please drop off your donations to the Rollin Art Centre, inside under the staircase in the wooden bin. We would appreciate if you could check the books for torn pages, mould and mildew, as we cannot sell books in these conditions. Thank you for your support.
