For example, on 18th of June everybody could see exellent movie "Slumdog millionaire", on 26th of June - "Impossible".
Also it will be a part of our summer programme - Summer Reading for Kids. During this summer programme kids could come to the library on each Thursday and have different activities with librarians like crafts and reading books by different ways.

On the 14th of June we were on the Beer Festival in Vasaknos.
Vasaknos is very small and beautiful vilage near small town Dusetos in Zarasai's region. We were there together with my sister. She came from Moscow to visit me. Also our mentor Virginija and two other volunteers Martin and Max were there too. Martin (from Spain) is working with me in the library and Max (from France) is working in Grazhute Regional Park were there.
So, we were on a fest together.
We tried a lot of sorts of lockal beer, listerned music from few lockal bands.
Generally I can say we spent nice time together. The fest was very funny, interesting and memorable.
