This year marks the 120th Anniversary of the Tompkins Square Library branch, " and for each year of its existence, the library's closest and most beautiful neighbor has been Tompkins Square Park, located just across the street."
To celebrate that milestone and pay tribute to the Park, the library is hosting several events in the days ahead curated by East Village photographer Robin McMillan and Laura Sewell, executive director of the East Village Community Coalition.
The events occur on Thursday evening, Saturday afternoon, and Sept. 24. This NYPL link has more details and registration info.
The library is at 331 E. 10th St. between Avenue A and Avenue B.

I love our library. (One event I would attend is a tour of the custodian's apartment that used to be upstairs... Attn: Stacie Joy)
I would second a tour of the custodian's apartment!
thirding that!
Thank you EVG readers! I looked into this and have learned that the custodian apartment was converted years ago into a hub for teaching ESOL (English for speakers of other languages). While I am a fan of this program I am bummed I missed out on this experience.
