Narrative:

I landed on runway 4 at bader field, aiy, with no event. No one was around. I departed runway 4 after taxiing back around. I later found out that runway 4 was closed for lndgs. There were no markings on the runway, indicating it was closed. I later read it on the bader field website, and in the AFD. I should have read all of the comments in the facility directory instead of just the runway numbers. I also should have checked the NOTAMS for bader field.
