Bling Thing 2023

Join us at the Barclay Event Center 
​

This popular sale of fashion and fine jewelry and accessories is presented by the Friends of Hackley Public Library. All proceeds benefit library programs and activities throughout the year.
 
Open to the public on both days, participants can purchase jewelry, purses, scarves, and other items that have been donated by the community. Estate sale professional Sherry Kelley has given her time and expertise for many years to help assess and price donated jewelry. 
 
On Friday, a $15 donation at the door includes wine, chocolates and an opportunity to shop from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.  
The sale continues on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. The floor will close at noon and reopens at 12:15 p.m., when everything except fine jewelry will be discounted 50 percent. This is the perfect time to stock up for your craft work, purchase jewelry for grandchildren, and grab some real bargains for yourself! 
 
An active group of community volunteers, the Friends of Hackley Public Library supports free programs for children and adults at the library throughout the year. Adult programs focus on history, literature, music, and other topics of interest to the community, as well as technology classes and author visits. The funds also support the annual Charles Hackley Distinguished Lecture in the Humanities held each spring.
 
Over the years, Friends has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to enhance and restore areas throughout the 133-year-old historic building.  
 
Except for a hiatus during the pandemic, Bling Thing raises more than $10,000 annually for Hackley Library. We need your support more than ever this year, and the selection of jewelry is our best yet.  We hope to see you buying bling on February 10th and 11th, 2023!

          What Our FRIENDS Are 
​           Saying

"I love the 2nd Hand Prose Bookstore for gently used books, both hardbound and paperback, all very reasonably priced! They also have several very nice items for purchase, such as a great sturdy shopping bag, nice brass commemorative bookmark,, a large poster of the library, coffee mug and a wonderful laser-etched brick that actually came from the library during renovations. Even my children love to shop there for inexpensive fun books to read as well as for Birthday, Christmas or other special occasion  gifting ideas "
