Our Sweet Library


"All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt."
--Charles M. Schulz




It's no secret that children's librarian Erica Joncyk is a chocoholic, and she was the inspiration for a new library fundraising party called Chocolate in the Village, which will take place at the D.M. Hunt Library on Saturday February 23, from 6 to 8 PM.

Designed as an antidote to the late winter blues, the party promises to be a chocolate-lover's dream come true with chocolate desserts donated by the town's best amateur and professional bakers; wines, teas, coffee and hot cocoa; a live auction of chocolate gift baskets as well as a wine tasting; door prizes and live music. The event is being organized by Zoe Fedorjaczenko, Mary Elling, Candice McRee, Laura Munson, Sharon Hamilton and Erica Joncyk. The event's charming, hand-drawn logo--a chocolate tsunami engulfing the D.M. Hunt Library, Toymaker's Cafe and the Falls Village Community & Cultural Center--is the work of Sergei Fedorjaczenko. (If you click on the image, you can see more detail.)

Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at the door. Call 824-7424 for tickets and information.

The artwork by Mr. Fedorjaczenko is quite charming. I am wondering if he has done any other drawings of buildings in the village or if he has a website where one can view other work by him?

This event is also a perfect example of the village pulling together and making something positive happen.

It is a lovely drawing. Two of my favorite places to be, and one in the making! Thank you Sergei!

I want to be sure everyone knows that the logo was a collaboration between me and Sharon Hamilton. I did the line drawings and Sharon added the chocolate tsunami. It takes a village!
