It's time for CLUE #3 in the PERRY HISTORIC BUILDINGS PUZZLE CHALLENGE? We are gearing up for the Perry Public Library Summer Library Program with a fun community puzzle challenge! Help us locate 20 puzzle pieces throughout Perry located in or on historic buildings throughout the month of May. We'll post clues in the library and on social media. Find a clue and return it to the Circulation Desk to help us bring our giant Read, White, and Blue Puzzle to life!
Our third puzzle piece can be found where Northwestern Bell once operated. Today, you can "call" at this location to discover local artist! Can you find the puzzle piece?
