Selected Events 2006

October 31, 2006.
About 40 children gathered in the Munich-Fürstenried branch public library for a Halloween bilingual reading program. The event was the first in a series of global culture programs under the title “Hello, America” organized by the U.S. Consulate General Munich in cooperation with the Munich city public libraries system. Public Affairs Officer Patricia Guy explained the traditions of Halloween to the children and read a classic American Halloween storybook. For most of the children this was their first exposure to the English language and to American cultural traditions.
