Pierce Brosnan to Attend Library Grand Opening and Earth Day Festival in Malibu

Apr 20, 2012 11:11 AM

Hollywood actor Pierce Brosnan will attend the grand opening celebration of the new Malibu Library along with a Earth Day celebration on April 22 as a special guest with Dick Van Dyke. The City of Malibu is combining the two exciting events on one day, which are free to the public.



Celebrating the highly anticipated opening of the Malibu Library along with an event-packed Earth Day Festival, the City of Malibu is welcoming the public to attend the free events that will include a dedication ceremony from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 23519 West Civic Center Way and special guest appearances by Brosnan and Van Dyke at 11 a.m.

The new LEED-certified library has undergone a $6 million renovation and represents Malibu’s role in environmental preservation. The grand opening event will feature live music, entertainment, local authors, children’s activities, story time and interactive exhibits, including a showcase of several typewriters previously owned by John Lennon, Ernest Hemmingway, and Andy Rooney, among others.

Following the library’s grand opening, the Earth Day Festival will get underway from noon to 3 p.m at Legacy Park, which is ideally located across from the new library. The festival will include a native plant sale, a smart gardening workshop, educational booths, park tours, animals, a hike to Malibu Lagoon, food vendors and more.

I found this link to a report on the event. There is a pic of Pierce reading a poem, and if you click on the video, you can see him and Keely at the ribbon cutting ceremony.

EARTH DAY celebration kicks off with a new Library…

What a great Sunday, yesterday. Kicked off with a great dedication to the new Eco-Library with Master of Ceremonies and locals Pierce Brosnan and a hilarious speech by Dick Van Dyke. And I mean hysterical, as he always is. Malibu’s gone without a Library for a while due to the renovation, but now… it’s wicked cool. I’ll post interior shots later, but if you come to the Bu for coffee, it’ll be worth the trip to swing in.



Places like this are so important for kids. Even big ones like us. They literally save people. And if you don’t believe that, read up on Og Mandino. His choice was to go buy a gun and end it, or go into the Library and get warm. Because of his choice, he ended up writing many books that sold millions and changed everything.

Spend some time in your local Library. And insert some peace into your life. Who knows, you may be driving a Bugatti like this dood…
