Very special visitors stopped by the Downtown Branch —four wonderful pups from ACTS - Assistance Canine Training Services 🐾 They greeted patrons, explored the Lewis Gallery, and made a few new friends along the way.
Our canine guests were especially impressed by the life-sized birds featured in our current exhibition, A Critical Balance: Birds of Amboseli, curated by the Biodiversity Research Institute!
