LOL (Lots of Libraries!!!)

Happy Sunday!

Recently, some people have asked me when and where I'm performing 🎶 at various libraries 📚 in the area. Although it's hard to detail every single one, here is a list of places I consistently go to on a monthly basis and almost always follow this schedule:

1. Hamilton Township Public Library (4th Friday of the month at 10:30AM)

2. Burlington County Library System (Main Library in Westampton on the 4th Friday of the month at 1PM).

3. Friends of Evesham Township (NJ) Library on the 3rd Friday of the month at 2PM.

4. Mount Laurel Library on the 4th Thursday of the month at 11:30AM (This is for adults with developmental disabilities).

5. Camden County Library System (Blackwood Library) on the 4th Monday of the month at 10:30AM.

6. Moorestown Library (first Friday of the month starting in September at 10AM).

In addition to these, I have one-off performances at other libraries coming up in 2026:

--This Friday, May 8th at 10AM at Robbinsville Library (Mercer County Library System)

--May 21, June, and August 27 at 10:30AM at Moorestown Library

--June 20 at ALL 3 Edison Libraries (as part of their summer reading kick-off program, starting at 10AM and going until 12:30PM).

--July 22nd at Waterford Township Public Library at 2PM.

--August 6th at M Allan Vogelson Library Camden County Library System at 1PM.

--November 6 at 10:30AM at Hickory Corner Library (Mercer County Library System)

Feel free to come on out/share with your family and friends! And, if you don't see your library in this list, feel free to tell them about me, Mr. Jim of Key of Awesome Music.

Thank you again and hope to see you out there!
