Our Summer 2025 StoryWalk is up! Visit the Memorial Park Fitness Trail and enjoy Extraordinary Jane by Hannah E. Harrison!

Jane is an ordinary dog in an extraordinary circus. She isn't strong, graceful, or brave like her family. When she tries to be those things, Jane just doesn't feel like herself, but she also doesn't feel special. Is she really meant for this kind of life? Her Ringmaster thinks so, but not for the reasons Jane believes.

Ordinary can be extraordinary!

Learn more about StoryWalks and get some ideas for additional activities.

Join us July 22, 2025 at 2:00 p.m. when we discuss Far From the Madding Crowd by Thomas Hardy.

In Thomas Hardy's first major literary success, independent and spirited Bathsheba Everdene has come to Weatherbury to take up her position as a farmer on the largest estate in the area. Her bold presence draws three very different suitors: the gentleman-farmer Boldwood, the soldier-seducer Sergeant Troy, and the devoted shepherd Gabriel Oak. Each, in contrasting ways, unsettles her decisions and complicates her life, and tragedy ensues, threatening the stability of the whole community. Hardy's novel of swift passion and slow courtship is imbued with his evocative descriptions of rural life and landscapes, and with unflinching honesty about sexual relationships.

Bayne Library is honored to be included in 2026 candidates for a new model in The Miniature Railroad & Village at the Carnegie Science Center.

The Miniature Railroad & Village features hundreds of wonderfully realistic animated scenes that capture what life was like in our region before 1940. The Miniature Railroad team chooses new models that best represent Western Pennsylvania's history and give visitors the opportunity to connect with the exhibit on a personal level.

Let's celebrate libraries, Bellevue, and this amazing building by voting for Bayne Library! You can vote once per day through July 31!

Join us Tuesday, July 8, 2025 at 2:00 p.m., when we discuss The God of the Woods by Liz Moore

Early morning, August 1975: a camp counselor discovers an empty bunk. Its occupant, Barbara Van Laar, has gone missing. Barbara isn't just any thirteen-year-old: she's the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs most of the region's residents. And this isn't the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared. Barbara's older brother similarly vanished fourteen years ago, never to be found.

As a panicked search begins, a thrilling drama unfolds. Chasing down the layered secrets of the Van Laar family and the blue-collar community working in its shadow, Moore's multi-threaded story invites readers into a rich and gripping dynasty of secrets and second chances. It is Liz Moore's most ambitious and wide-reaching novel yet.

about

You Be You Inc provides contemporary, culturally relevant and social emotional learning aligned music programming to youth 0-18 in Pittsburgh, PA. You Be You takes systemic approaches to empowering diverse groups of students to express themselves fully though music. Students receiving You Be You services are guided towards musical fluency in individual and community settings.​

All programs use our original curriculum, a developmentally sequential, and creativity-powered method. Students learn through play and creativity while absorbing necessary music theory skills to communicate their inner thoughts and feelings through song. Georgia English hand-draws all worksheets, develops characters kids love, and empowers musical autonomy in musicians of all ages.

"I love everything about this company. They're excellent musicians, excellent humans, and this organization serves an excellent purpose. Miss Georgia is an amazing teacher. She is great at gently guiding the students while also relating to them. Our 6 year old has really started to find his voice and that has so much to do with Miss Georgia!"

The majority of our programs are free thanks to our amazing community partners. At this time, the only paid programs are private lessons ($30/30 minutes) and some of our summer camps.

What instruments do you offer for private lessons?

At this time, we offer piano, ukulele, guitar, songwriting and music theory.

Do you offer scholarships/financial aid for private lessons?

We offer a number of private lesson scholarships each year. These are reserved primarily for Millvale youth and youth in the foster care system. We offer an automatic $5 discount for single parents and can at times offer short-term partial or full scholarships for previously paying families experiencing financial hardship.

Where do you host programs?

We host programs at our main location (115 Sedgwick Street, Millvale PA), at the Millvale Community Library, the Etna Pop-Up Library, West View HUB as well as at partner schools and shelters for unhoused families.

What are your requirements for staff/teachers?

Music instructors must have a music degree or 5 years minimum as a professional musician. We at times make exceptions for college students working towards a music degree. After-school and camp teachers must be proficient on musical instruments and/or have training in K-12 education.
