From Main Street librarian Patty Parks:

We are creating a “Welcome the World” banner pop-up event at the Main Library on [FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 18 ] from 9-4 at 101 E. Franklin Street and 2nd Street.
Although the Main Library will be closed during the Richmond Bike2015, our spirit is with the race, the city and the world that will be watching our spectacular event.
To be proactive and to show our solidarity with the city and race, we would like to accessorize our 2nd Street wall (stretching almost the whole block from Main to Franklin) with banners from organizations that are not on the race course. The bicyclists will be taking this 2nd Street route from Main to Broad, and this will give everyone an opportunity to welcome our visitors and show off our community support.
If you would like to put a banner up on our wall, we will be attaching them on Friday, September 19th. Join us! We will attach your banner with double-sided tape; you can remove it on Monday, Sept. 28.
Let’s make this a Welcome Wall to mark this epic event.
