On May 27, 2016, we held a party at Central Library to welcome newcomers to Arlington.

Attendees of our English Conversation Classes and ESL students from Arlington”s Adult Education (REEP) program brought their families and joined international Library staff and volunteers for an evening of great food, entertainment, and getting to know one another better.

Folks came from all over the world, including the Middle East, Africa, Asia, India, China, Japan, South America, Central America, Mexico and Europe.

We hope this will be only the first of many similar events!
