Mission
Finist and The Owl provides the space for passionate readers to connect in the Town of Bellefonte and beyond.
Focusing on children’s books, in multiple languages, Finist and the Owl enables parents to introduce and explore fascinating literature from near and far, expanding their kids' worlds, and enriching their lives.
Finist and the Owl serves as a literary hub for the Russian-speaking community in the Mid-Atlantic Region situated centrally in Wilmington, Delaware, and supports the connection with French language, history, and culture by offering French-speaking titles.
Vision
Imagine a world where each child can find a book that fascinates them, helps them make sense of the world, invites exploration of who they are, and brings people together. Imagine a world where uniqueness is celebrated, communities strive for peace, and life-long learning is embraced.
Finist and the Owl endeavors to be such a place where understanding, inclusion, diversity, and equity are not mere words. Rather, they are the embodiment of consequences brought forth through the reading and sharing of the knowledge conveyed to us by books.
