Upcoming Events

Shell Talk

Come along to hear all about shells, presented by Taryn The Shell Ambassador.  

Saturday 28 February 2026 at 9.30am

Taryn will be sharing some of her new insights and learnings from Albany, and how that knowledge applies to the local shells.

Broome's Mangoes, Muddies and Memories- Recipes and Recollections Community Project

This is a community cohesion project, and all members of the Broome Community are invited to submit their favourite recipes associated with Broome, along with photos of family and friends enjoying a Broome feed, and anecdotes around the sharing of food.

It might be a favourite mango chutney recipe, or the BEST chilli mud crab recipe, or the funniest fishing trip, or a catch & cook memory.

These will be compiled into a lovely booklet, a true celebration of our diverse Broome community.

If you'd like to participate, you can download the templates, or alternatively, you can use the headings on a digital document, or hand written sheet.

There are two templates - one for your recipe (with space for some brief special comments) and one for recollections (a long form 'memories' submission).

Email it to library@broome.wa.gov.au or drop it in to the library.

Any questions call us at the library 91913477.  Submissions close 20/03/2026, but we'd appreciate them sooner than later.
