A Very Candy Christmas Holiday Display 2021

A Very Candy Christmas Holiday Display 2021

The Piqua Public Library invites you to enjoy our sweet holiday displays! The theme for this year’s holiday show is A Very Candy Christmas. Library staff and volunteers have adorned Piqua’s historic library with peppermints, candy canes, ribbon candy, gingerbread, and other sweet treats.

Our life-sized toy soldiers will greet you before viewing the following collections: Baby Boomer Christmas, Christmas Around the World, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, and Vintage Christmas Stories.

The main Christmas tree in the Lobby showcases a mouthwatering collection of peppermint and other sweet ornaments crafted by our staff. Also in the Lobby is a display, Sweet Memories, Christmas stories, and recipes shared by staff and patrons.

You will discover Christmas cheer on all floors of the Library. Gingerbread people and colorful candies abound in the Children’s Department. Follow the gingerbread people to find our Christmas books, say “hi” to Leonard, a snowman visiting for the holidays, and admire the forest of Christmas trees in the back.

Visit the second floor of the Library to see the Community Christmas Trees and artwork by Tipp City artist Logan Rogers. In 2018, the display started with seven trees decorated by local businesses and organizations. Today it has grown to fourteen trees which festively fill the Horace Rollin Art Gallery. Vote for your favorite tree online!

Enjoy the holiday decor now through the start of the New Year. The displays will be on view through Saturday, January 8th. In addition, photographs of the decorations will be available on social media for those who wish to stay home but still enjoy the Library during the holiday season.
