Inspired by Ralph Shayne’s Hour of Need, this passive program invites participants to create their own Morse code bracelets.
Using beads and thread, messages of resilience, unity, and hope are encoded into wearable art, symbolizing the enduring power of communication in times of crisis. Visit any of our eight participating locations, each featuring a unique Morse code message, and create your personalized bracelet as a symbol of resilience and unity.
Due to the historical nature of the EVPL East, West, and Stringtown buildings their meeting rooms are not fully ADA accessible. If you are interested in participating in a program that is not accessible, please contact that location to arrange alternative accommodations.
Located at 2000 W Franklin St., EVPL West was one of three original libraries built in Evansville with funds donated by Andrew Carnegie. Along with EVPL East, it was dedicated and opened to the public on January 1, 1913. Renovated in 2003, the building is surrounded by a park-like setting that is home to annual events like the Farmer’s Market and West Side Nut Club Fall Festival. EVPL West features a spacious meeting room, public access computers, and comfortable adult and youth areas.
