We are the proud new owners of the former La Veta Elementary School and its outdoor space, including the playground! The La Veta-Cuchara Foundation (the Library’s endowment fund) committed $100,000, and the Library committed $150,000 from reserves to make this purchase possible. In addition to this $250,000 commitment, we have raised $94,596 toward renovations so far!

Help us keep the momentum going! One of the best ways to help us reach our goal is to purchase a Growth Tree leaf. A stunning metallic tree crafted by Andy Brinkley Studios will be displayed in the new East Branch. Thanks to a deeply generous gift from the family of the late Bert Rosen, the cost of the tree is fully covered, so every dollar from leaf purchases goes directly to the building fund. Leaves are available in three tiers: Copper ($6,000), Bronze ($3,000), and Brass ($1,500). For more information, grab a brochure at the desk or email Library Director Ashley Vandagriff at director@lvpl.org.
