PRINCETON PUBLIC LIBRARY HOSTS HALLOWEEN-THEMED EVENTS OCT. 29-30, 2010

Princeton Public Library is gearing up for Halloween with a series of special, interactive events geared to all ages. Kids and their families can join in the fun as the library gets into the spirit of the season.
 
Library staff and teen volunteers will be transforming the library’s Community Room into a haunted house on Oct. 29 at 4 p.m. At 5 p.m., it will be open for tours, remaining open until 9 p.m. The Arts Council of Princeton’s annual Halloween Parade will begin in Palmer Square and march to Hinds Plaza. While waiting to tour the haunted house, kids can dance to spooky tunes in the plaza.
 
On Oct. 30 at 7 p.m., the library’s Halloween Celebration for middle school students will be held as a special, after-hours program. An entrancing hypnotist, a game show, and a costume contest are part of this event, which is co-sponsored by the library, Corner House, The Arts Council of Princeton, HiTOPS, and the Princeton Recreation Department. Funding for this program provided by the Princeton Alcohol and Drug Alliance, through the Mercer County Office on Addiction Services and the Governor’s Council on Alcoholismand Drug Abuse.
