Celebrate Valentine’s Day with a literary surprise at our Blind Date with a Book for Adults on Saturday, February 14th, from 10 AM to 5 PM at the Highlands Stratford Branch Library. Choose one or more mystery-wrapped books and discover a new favorite without judging by the cover. As a sweet bonus, patrons will receive a treat when they check out their books—because every great date deserves dessert!
English
Shake those winter blues and bring a little light to your day. Come to the library to create a beautiful, little candleholder or two for your home or to give as a gift. All materials will be provided. No registration is needed.
Adults who are learning English are invited to join us for E.S.L. Cafe each month at Kingwood Library!
At E.S.L. Cafe, we play tabletop games (board games, card games, & conversation games) in English. Come by for a welcoming, supportive space to practice your English & connect with others in your community.
Come when you want & stay as long as you want. All levels are welcome! Coffee & refreshments provided.
Hope to see you there!
