Calling all writers: the Library is hosting a workshop for writers of all experience levels! Local author Phyllis Carito will be leading this event that encourages authors practicing and sharing their writing with others, and developing skills while forming lasting connections. All are welcome, whether you've got a short story idea in mind or are putting the finishing touches on a new novel!
Every Wednesday after school we'll have a drop in craft or art project! Each week we'll explore different mediums or processes! Let your imagination be the guide! This program is open to kids ages 5-12 years old.
Join Mandy for stories and songs! All ages welcome! Please note that we do Story Time at 10:30 AND 11:30 am (and not from 10:30 to 12:00, just to be clear, thank you!)
