A planned drag-themed bingo event for teens at the Downers Grove Public Library has been canceled because of threats now being investigated by local police, officials announced Monday.
“Providing an inclusive, welcoming, and safe space for everyone in the Downers Grove community is of the utmost importance to the library,” library Director Julie Milavec said in an open letter to the community. “Unfortunately, in this case, it is not possible to provide a safe place for everyone due to the threats made.”
