The Croton Free Library Association is very excited to be holding a new fundraiser, an Online Auction. The auction will be held March 13-27, 2021 at www.crotonfreelibrary.org/auction. The auction includes 100 items generously donated by our community and features many local artists and businesses. Items include handmade knitted fashions, gift cards to an assortment of local stores and restaurants, art works and a number of online tutorials. Depending on the item purchased, the Library will include either a gently used book or a “Croton Strong” t-shirt (donated by the Green Growler).
