More About Classic Containers Workshop with Carol King Platt
This is a lighthearted look at ways to use everyday items that most people already own, as containers for flower arrangements. Carol will make 5 arrangements or decorations with spring flowers and foliage in vintage containers that she has collected. They will be raffled off to the attendees, along with bundles of leftover flowers and foliage to take home and use to make their own arrangements.

More About Pequot Library
A Cultural Beacon
Pequot Library was founded in 1889 by Southport, CT residents Virginia Marquand Monroe (1837 – 1926) and Elbert B. Monroe (1836 – 1894). The Library building, designed by noted American architect Robert H. Robertson, opened to the public in March 1894. It was Mrs. Monroe’s intention that Pequot be as “free as air to all.”
Pequot Library is a destination library listed on the National Register of Historic Places. For over seven generations, Pequot Library has been a cultural beacon of Fairfield County, providing traditional library services and diverse programming to our local and regional community. We help children develop a lifelong interest in reading and learning through engaging programs and special activities. Our robust calendar of events includes musical performances, exhibitions, lectures, and a wide range of cultural, educational, and community events. We integrate our Special Collections of rare books, manuscripts, and archives into our day-to-day services to the community through exhibitions, programs, and hands-on classes and workshops.
