VENTURA, CA - Members of the Ventura community can listen to live music, learn more about the library’s programs and celebrate at E.P. Foster’s open house on Saturday, March 16.

The event will take place directly after the local parade from 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. in the E.P. Foster Library. This is an event for all ages and a chance for families and friends to learn more about everything the library can offer in the coming months.
