cantonpl

Join us this summer for the library’s Summer Adult Meet Ups, an ongoing series that offers a relaxed, welcoming space to enjoy a little summer fun — designed just for adults.

Some books make us laugh, some challenge us, some comfort us, and some quietly become part of who we are. “You Are What You Read” is a chance to reflect on the personal connection we have with the...

Michigan in the American Revolution

royaloak

Andrew Kercher from the Port Huron Museum is back by popular demand to help us celebrate America's 250th birthday!

From the British stronghold at Detroit, where alliances with Native nations shaped the conflict in the Great Lakes, to Michilimackinac controlling trade and communication routes, Michigan’s wilderness was a stage for intrigue and shifting loyalties. These stories reveal...
