BLUFFTON, Ohio - The first two weeks of basketball have been kind to both the Bluffton University men and women as the Beavers have combined for a perfect 9-0 mark heading into Heartland Conference action on Saturday, Dec. 3. It marks the first time in Bluffton history that both teams have sported a bagel in the loss column at this point of the season!
You might call it a month of holidays in December at the Bluffton Public Library. Here's an overview of events planned:
On Fridays in December (2nd, 9th, and 16th), BPL will feature holiday crafts. The library will provide crafts for kids, teens, and adults to make within the library. Take some time to be creative, and maybe your creation will be shared on our website and social media. BPL is also seeking scrapbooking items like paper, decals, scraps, etc. to be used in future craft programs in the library.
Take a walk down Bluffton's Main Street business district and look at the windows. You'll find this miniature winter village in the Senior Citizen Center window. More windows featured all month on the Icon.
Gallery 323 is open in December. It features works in an assortment of media by at least a dozen Bluffton area artists.
The gallery, at 323 N. Main St., was launched as a storefront where local artisans could sell their art.
The late Gregg Luginbuhl opened the studio. The Luginbuhl family decided to reopen the gallery for the month of December.
Karen Luginbihl said, “Gregg's wish was to keep the gallery running, and while we don't yet know the long-term plan, we want to give the artists involved a chance to sell their work for the holidays.”
