Libraries are important cornerstones of a healthy community. The Vestavia Hills Library in the Forest provides our community with the opportunity to find jobs, learn how to market and expand your business, explore medical research, experience new ideas, and get lost in wonderful stories all while providing a gorgeous location for gathering. All of our programs, resources, and services are free and open to the public.
In partnership with the Alabama Symphony Orchestra, we are thrilled to offer free tickets to this season’s performances. Tickets are available to library card-holders on the first day of the month on a first come, first served basis. Questions? Contact the Adult Services Desk at 205-978-4674.
