Tweens

Haunted homeschoolers, join us in the Grand Chamber for a morning of spine-tingling creativity and monstrous masterpieces at Crafts from the Crypt!

Every week this October at 11:00 AM, creative ghouls and goblins ages 5–10 will gather at the library to resurrect ordinary craft supplies into spectacularly spooky art. From friendly phantoms to creepy-crawly keepsakes, each session will be horridly fun and hands-on for growing monsters--we mean makers. Parents, don't fear—the mess stays with us in the crypt.

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.

All materials provided. This program is designed for grades 6th-12th only.
