Events › Mitchell Park Library & Community Center 10 Year Anniversary Celebration

Join us on Saturday, November 16 from 11 AM–2 PM, as we celebrate the 10 year anniversary of our spectacular library and community center! Festivities include speeches, architectural tours, performances and other activities, which highlight how this popular joint facility is used daily by Palo Alto and surrounding communities.
