Altadena Library Foundation Taste of 'Dena Update

The Altadena Library Foundation has made the difficult decision to cancel our treasured annual event, Taste of ‘Dena for this year. It’s simply a matter of not having the staff support we rely upon to make the event happen.

Although we have cancelled Taste of ‘Dena this year, we are still determined to fulfill our promise to the library, so your support is still needed and deeply appreciated.

We are so grateful for your generous support over the years, and we value your trust in us as a strong organization who provides innovative programming and services for the Altadena Library District.

Respectfully,
Anita Lawler, President
Altadena Library Foundation

Join Our Updated Read Local, Shop Local Rewards Program!

Read Local, Shop Local has been revamped! This updated library rewards program motivates Altadenans to visit and “check in” with a rewards card at local participating businesses to earn exclusive library district merchandise.

Participating businesses check a box on the card for each visit and display a flyer each month. In return, we feature the business in our monthly in-library display, on our webpage, and spotlight it in an issue of our eConnect newsletter. 

 

For full details about program benefits for both library users and local businesses, visit us at www.altadenalibrary.org/shoplocal
