Stepping out for the library

There will be music, dancing, appetizers, and a cash bar. The Brockton Garden Club will provide a display of period fashions. Tickets are $50 and available at the main circulation desk, by calling Barbara Lutz at 508-583-4987, and by visiting brocktonhistoricalsociety.org.
