I am using Thonny to program. I do not see a library for gc9a01 or vga1_bold_16x32. How can I get these modules installed?

See the comment in the header, "Using GC9A01 Display Driver for MicroPython (https://github.com/russhughes/gc9a01_mpy)"

I saw that comment, I guess I am just to new to thonny. Can't figure out how to install a library/driver from github in it.

FYI https://github.com/russhughes/gc9a01_mpy/blob/main/firmware/RP2/firmware.uf2 is Micropython v1.19.1 with the driver built in.
Just download it and copy it to the Pico drive you see when powering on with the 'boot' button pressed.
