Art & Bonna Vanderlyn Community Center/Hartford Public Library
Construction of a new public library and
community center in Hartford, Michigan, located in the southwest part of the
state, with a service area of 6,573 residents.
To construct an 8,000 sq. ft. public library and community center dedicated to education, humanities, scholarship, research and cultural activities in the Hartford community and surrounding areas. The present facility, due to its limited space of 2,500 sq. ft., does not provide opportunities for life long learning. With a new 21st century building, we will be able to provide access to cultural and educational resources in all formats; strengthen teaching and learning; facilitate research and scholarship to meet the growing needs of all people in our community. Our goal is to be the center of cultural and humanities study within our multicultural, low income community. We strive to provide opportunities for learning in all formats to prepare children and adults for the present and the future.
