Hooray! Winnie-the-Pooh turns 90 this summer! (On August 21, to be precise.) If you’d like to send Winnie a birthday card, we have a mailbox at the Children’s Center @ 42nd Street and are accepting cards on Winnie’s behalf. After all, the original Winnie-the-Pooh doll set — including Winnie, of course! — is at the Library, on view in the Children’s Center, in a special room surrounded by art of the 100 Acre Wood! If you haven’t seen the darling little figures, stop by and take a look!
Not only are we collecting cards for Winnie, but we are also making cards in a Family Crafts program on August 9 (for ages 3-12 years; preregistration required). On Saturday, August 20, the Library is having a big Winnie-the-Pooh birthday bash. It starts at 3 pm, and there will be face painting, balloon animals, crafts, and more.
It’s a Winnie-the-Pooh summer! He’ll only turn 90 years old once; celebrate with us!

This Week in Vimeo! July 26th
This weeks extraordinary user is Eddie O’KEEFE, a member since December 2007. Eddie seems to have stumbled out of a different decade, describing himself as the kinda’ guy who “digs chicks, patty melts and rock n roll music.” He’s responsible for some amazing short films and music videos, all with a unique “rustic” style. His profile claims, “He makes movies about delinquent teenagers behaving badly,” but he manages more than just that. Eddie’s work captures the energy and emotional complexity of youth, and with such style.
Check out his latest music video The CHANCES - No Escape and while you’re at it, watch our personal favorite, The GHOSTS.Last Week’s Video School Lessons:
