  • Ventura County Library and the Rotary Club of Ventura present a month of peace-building activities in March!

    Rotarians approach peace not as the absence of conflict, but as “positive peace”—strengthening communities by addressing root causes such as poverty, lack of education, and limited access to opportunities.  In March, E.P. Foster, Avenue, Saticoy and Hill Road Libraries  host peace-themed book displays in keeping with the Rotary Club’s mission to foster positive change and peace.
    Origami peace dove craft sessions with take-home kits will be offered  March 5 at 3:30 pm at Hill Road Library; March 10 at 4:00 pm at Saticoy Library and March 12 at 2:30 pm at Avenue Library.
