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.
Join us for a night of junk journaling where we'll use crafting supplies and personal memorabilia to create or work on your junk journal! We'll provide basic crafting supplies and scraps, but we encourage you to bring your own materials!
What is junk journaling? It's similar to scrapbooking but less polished and structured. Here, we'll use scraps and random tidbits of found materials to express ourselves and preserve memories. Think about receipts from purchases on a trip, ticket stubs from a movie, a torn piece from a brochure, etc.
Whether you are just starting off or wanting to take your skill to the next level, this class is for you.
All lessons are free. Please bring your own guitar
Registration for this class can be done when you attend an in person session.
Books & Banter is a monthly book club that usually meets at the end of each month to explore books that celebrate and honor the richness of different cultures, movements and milestones. From the inspiring stories of Black History Month and the trailblazing women we recognize during Woman’s History Month to Disability Pride Month and more. Our club delves into diverse perspectives and voices that have shaped the world we live in. With each book we aim to spark meaningful conversations, reflect on history and the joys and struggles of the human experience.
