Library outlines US@250 screening, Tamworth Author Fest and summer programs

Mary Cronin, the library director, told trustees on Feb. 9, 2026 that the library is planning several programs for 2026. A US@250 Big Watch screening and facilitated discussion is planned for May with funding from a New Hampshire Humanities grant; the grant also provides $300 for a library-developed 250th anniversary program carried out with the Tamworth History Center and the Recreation Department. Children’s activities will include skits about life in Tamworth in 1776 and a walking-tour booklet that will let residents and visitors follow local historic sites including Sally’s House and the Town Pound.
