The Greensburg Hempfield Area Library held its first official public celebration since the start of renovations with a Children’s Pumpkin Patch Walk and a food truck fundraiser on Saturday afternoon.

Library officials hosted crafts and activities, raffled baskets, held a used book sale and offered self-guided tours of the renovations.

Work began at the downtown Greensburg library in May 2021 and was initially expected to take four to six months to complete.

Renovations including updating mechanical, electrical and plumbing aspects of the building; repairing the roof and front stairs; re-pointing brick on the outside; adding two new circulation desks and bringing the library up to code with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
