De-stress, unwind, and enjoy the almost-magical calm that comes from painting with watercolors. We will be honoring Women's History Month throughout March by paying tribute to different artists!

This week's art will be inspired by impressionist painter Mary Cassatt.

This is not an art class -- it's a chance to be creative and relax while enjoying each other's company in an encouraging environment.

See the colors flow from your imagination to the paper and let your worries drift away for a while.

Book Buddies is a FREE literacy program that brings child and teens together to share the joy of reading. It pairs trained teen volunteers (Big Buddies) with children in K-3rd grades (Little Buddies).

Each Wednesday for 10 weeks, Big Buddies and Little Buddies will meet to read together and create positive experiences surrounding literacy. By the end of the session, we aspire that all Little Buddies will learn to love to read and form positive associations with reading.
