    Harry Potter Bingo Party

    Accio fun! Prepare to wave your wands and flaunt your Hogwarts house pride at our magical Harry Potter Bingo Party on Saturday, August 2nd from 10 AM to 12 PM at the Lakeland Public Library! We'll kick things off with a few rounds of bingo to snag those house points, and then dive into a themed craft so you can take a bit of the magic home with you.

    Witches, wizards, and muggles of all ages welcome. No registration required, but space is limited and once the Great Hall reaches capacity, we won’t be able to accommodate additional guests – no matter how many undetectable extension charms are cast.

    Costumes encouraged!
