Destin Library Celebrates 75 Years

The Destin Library will celebrate its 75thAnniversary with an open house and ice cream social on Friday, August 21st, beginning at 1:00 PM. This event is free and open to the public. On August 21st, staff and *Friends members will turn time back to the 1940’s. Gone for the day will be items we all take for granted such as: computers, DVDs, Books on CD, Microfilm, Copier machines and more. Replacing these will be bulletin boards and displays that depict vintage books, activities, games from the era. A “back to future” room will allow visitors to “move from the 40’s to the present” as a way of highlighting all that has changed in 75 years. 1940’s music will be played throughout the library and tours of the library and its grounds will be provided by volunteers and staff for interested visitors.
