Beginning on Wednesday, June 23, at the Summer Reading Kickoff for children at Prosser Public Library and continuing into August, read books and win prizes. Sign up at Prosser or the Wintonbury Branch. Just for starters, if adults or high school students sign up for summer reading and read just one book, they can fill out a book review card at the library and receive a coupon for a free tall brewed coffee in mild or bold at the Starbucks located at 852 Cottage Grove Road in Bloomfield (860-726-9695).

	August 31, 2010 (Tues) 7:00 P.M. The Making of a Grand Piano Follow the creation of a Steinway concert grand in this feature-length independent documentary Note by Note. It explores the relationship between musician and instrument, chronicles the manufacturing process, and illustrates what makes each Steinway unique. Note by Note was produced by Ben Niles. Craftsmen labor for nearly a year, using techniques and procedures created over 150 years ago, before a Steinway grand is completed. Enjoy the film and stay for a Q & A afterward with representatives of the Steinway Piano Gallery of Westport. Meet Barbara Oligino, general manager and Lawrence Wenthen, institutional sales representative. Call for information, 860-243-9721.
