Listen to live music each Friday at Noon at Central Library.
This week Mike Maas and the Late Nite Line Up take the stage in Central Library's Hamilton Room. Mike Maas has been writing and preforming music for over 15 years. His most recent release is called An Imaginary Moment From An Imaginary Life Vol 1. The band features Mike Maas on Vocals/Guitar; Andrew Bentham-Riley on Lead Guitar; Joe Gravina on Drums/Vocals; Ryan Boyko on Bass; and Mike Alonzo on Keys/Vocals.
The first Hamilton Public Library building opened on September 16, 1890 by the Earl and Countess of Aberdeen on the north side of Main Street West. In 1913, a new main library opened. This building was replaced in 1980 by Central Library, at the current location on York Boulevard.
In 2010, Central Library re-opened after approximately 18 months of renovations. Central Library opened with a newly revitalized first floor, which includes a Community Living Room that takes advantage of natural light. The Ontario Library Association honoured Central in 2012 with an Architectural and Design Transformation award.
