One club. Every fandom.
Teen Fandom Club
Every 4th Wednesday of the month at 4:30 PM
Whether you're into fantasy, gaming, anime, sci-fi, mystery, or something totally different, this is your space to nerd out without judgment. Each month you and your fellow club members get to vote on a brand-new theme, so the fun never looks the same twice, one month it might be a cozy fantasy, the next could be retro video games. You'll have a say in where the club goes next.
Do you enjoy cross stitch, needlepoint, knitting, crocheting, or any other of the needle arts?
Then you should join our Sit and Stitch Group on Thursday mornings!
Bring your projects to work on and visit with this awesome group!

What we offer:
This class is for people who already know a little about using a computer and want to learn how to design custom projects in Canva and bring them to life using a Cricut cutting machine. Over 6 weeks, we will practice navigating Canva’s easy design tools, working with fonts and shapes, and learning the "secret" to moving your designs into the Cricut software to create professional-looking items like personalized cards, vinyl decals, and gift tags.
Do you knit/crochet/craft? Please join us for our weekly meeting of the Knotty and Nice Club. We meet for 2 hours and socialize while working on our own projects or community charity projects. Please note that this is not a class but people are always available to help you if you need a LITTLE help. If you have never knitted or crocheted, the library offers many books and a few DVDs to learn. You can find many helpful videos on YouTube as well.
Bounce, wiggle, and learn with us!
