For Black History Month, play a game of bingo that facilitates discussions about race and offers opportunities to learn about Black visionaries, leaders, and artists. Pick up a card at any MCPL location or download it here. Complete five squares in a row to earn a prize! Just turn it in to an MCPL staff member at the Downtown Library, Ellettsville Branch, or Bookmobile. All ages.

New English speakers will practice everyday language skills in a relaxed, informal atmosphere. Learners will enjoy friendly conversation, learn about daily life in the U.S., gain confidence, and meet new people from around the world.
