Teens

**For grades 6th-12th**

*Younger siblings welcome!*

Are you looking for a welcoming and stress-free environment for you and your homeschooled tweens and/or teens? 6th-12th graders will meet other homeschoolers, chat, craft, & have fun at the library!

Meet other parents and form long-lasting connections and a sense of community.

Thursday, December 3 ~ 1 PM


Library programs are always free and made possible by our Friends of the Fairbanks Library. Teen programs are designed for middle schoolers and high schoolers.

Join us every Thursday for a fun hour full of crafts and workshops. Relax, have a snack in a safe and welcoming space!

Calling all homeschooled kids! Through hands-on activities, experiments, and interactive lessons, children will discover, learn, and explore.

Book Buddies is a free program that brings children and and teen volunteers together to share the joy of reading. It pairs trained volunteers (Big Buddies) with children in Kindergarten through 3rd grades (Little Buddies). For 10 weeks, the Buddies meet once a week in the afternoon for 45 minutes of one-on-one shared reading.

Switch 2 Play is a weekly Thursday event at 5:00 PM in the library, where people of all ages can relax and connect through popular games like Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Mario Kart World, Just Dance, Street Fighter VI, and more! All necessary equipment—including the console, controllers, and seating—is provided for a fun and easygoing gaming experience, though feel free to bring your own controllers if you prefer!

Are you interested in volunteering at the library? Join us for our volunteer orientation. You can pick up an volunteer application from the front desk of the library. Volunteers under the age of 18 will need a parent/guardian to fill out the application for volunteering.
