Meeting RoomJoin us as we continue our Rooted Here series! Grow your native gardening knowledge to optimize the space you already have. A small balcony or a concrete patio is enough to get started!
Sharon Sorenson, Local Author and accomplished former Courier and Press Writer, will educate us on the benefits of starting your own container garden. A small balcony or a concrete patio is enough to get started. Sharon will show attendees how to grow native plants in containers in ways that are both beautiful and ecologically meaningful, with guidance that meets people wherever they are, whether they are planting for the first time or looking for fresh ideas for a mature garden.

EVPL West
Located at 2000 W Franklin St., EVPL West was one of three original libraries built in Evansville with funds donated by Andrew Carnegie. Along with EVPL East, it was dedicated and opened to the public on January 1, 1913. Renovated in 2003, the building is surrounded by a park-like setting that is home to annual events like the Farmer’s Market and West Side Nut Club Fall Festival. EVPL West features a spacious meeting room, public access computers, and comfortable adult and youth areas.
