300th Anniversary Window
Have you seen the new stained glass window?
Local stained glass artist Nick Mazzamurro designed and manufactured the window. It is his interpretation of the Center tree photograph from 1904.

Things to look for in the window....
*The center tree has a branch that is sweeping down holding the book for the reader.
*In the line of trees in the background, one is red. That is a nod to the current central tree, a red maple.
This gorgeous window is the library's gift for the town's 300 anniversary. This project is supported in part by a grant from the Rutland Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency, our Friends Group, and Gift Account donations.
Our mural by artist Alison Stevenson!
Alison Stevenson designed and painted this amazing new wall mural for our Children's room. Look closely--famous characters from Children's Literature have been in our room and hung up their clothes on our coat rack! How many can you identify?
Reminder:
No food or drink is allowed in the Children's Library. Help us keep this amazing space clean and open to all.
The Rutland Children's room is a magical space designed for reading, play, and creativity. The space is divided into stations encouraging parents and kids to read, play and interact together.
