Teens

In 1735, Mother Leeds was about to deliver her thirteenth child. Feeling tired and weary of the burden, she cursed the unborn child. According to the folklore, she gave birth to the devil’s child at their home in the Pine Barrens. Today, the tale of Jersey Devil is often discussed as just that – a tale. However, during the time of the fabled Jersey Devil’s reign of terror, South Jersey residents were truly frightened. How the accounts were reported on and the folklore that developed will be discussed during this session.

We're looking for teens who are interested in talking with other teens about current events and the issues of the day that impact us all.
This group will be shaped by what its members are interested in doing so please come with your ideas and an open mind!
​For teens 8th grade +

Upcycle those old t-shirts! This is a great way to use last season's team t-shirts or a previous year's event t-shirts! Re-purpose an unwanted t-shirt today and easily turn the shirt into a re-usable tote bag. These t-shirt totes are strong and washable! Use for groceries, library books, tennis balls, gym clothes or pool supplies---use for anything you need to carry!

Bring your own t-shirt or use ours. We'll teach you the basics of using the sewing machine, how to sew a seam and create an awesome tote bag.
