Chelsea District Library

Back by popular demand, Music in the Air is returning to Chelsea! Accomplished pianists Jacopo and Maddalena Giacopuzzi will dazzle the community once again with solo and four hands performances on August 1 at 3pm at Chelsea First United Methodist Church.

This concert was conceived to make classical music accessible to all without the barriers of formal attire, a stuffy concert hall, and expensive tickets. This year, we are thrilled to partner with Ypsilanti District Library, who will also host these talented siblings for a concert. We invite you to participate once more in this beloved library tradition.

As part of our celebration of all things dinosaur during this year's Summer Reading Program, the American Museum of Natural History is hosting a webinar with a real paleontologist next week, and you're invited!
