MONMOUTH — The 35th annual May Faire, a community event sponsored by Friends of Cumston Public Library, will be held from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, May 22.
The Friends of Cumston Public Library plant sale will also be held during the fair.
The events will be held rain or shine. All activities will be outdoors. All proceeds support programs of Cumston Public Library.
