New: Watch our Dolly Parton Imagination Library Public Service Announcment!
The quilt raffle is one way that you can support the library and provide books to children in their homes. There are 36 quilts that were handmade by community members and citizens interested in assuring that every child has books in their home and is read to before they go to school. The quilts were designed to be lap quilts for you and your child to cuddle up. The quilts are based on the book, Brown Bear, Brown Bear and every quilt will come with a hard cover board book as well as a Play Learn and Read at Home Activity sheet to support your childs learning and development.
Tickets for the raffle will be $5.00 per ticket or $30.00 for 10 tickets. This is approximately the same amount of money that it costs to fund a child in the program for an entire year! The more tickets you buy, the more chances you have to win a quilt that is sure to be treasured by your child. All of the quilts are numbered for reference in the raffle.
