Sip, learn, and have fun! Enjoy mocktails, hands-on games, and powerful insights from MPD, Vision Zero, and Safe & Sound at this lively sober celebration.

Looking for a fun way to celebrate without the booze? Join us at Villard Square Library for Festive without the Fizz: A Mocktail Party for a Sober Celebration!

We’re teaming up with Vision Zero, Safe & Sound, and MPD District 7 for an afternoon that mixes learning with a whole lot of fun. Hear real talk about staying safe on the roads and in our neighborhoods, then try out some hands-on activities that’ll open your eyes (and make you laugh).

After that, it’s time to party—with mocktail tastings, easy drink recipes, and a bunch of zero-proof inspo from the library’s cookbook collection. You’ll leave with new ideas, tasty sips, and maybe a few new favorite reads.

Come curious, come thirsty—just don’t miss it!
