Positivity Jars!

For a less Valentiney take on February, we're focusing on how we love ourselves!

Join us for a simple and meaningful self-care activity; fill up a tiny jar with a list of awesome qualities about yourself!  We'll be using scrapbooking paper and paper punches to make these projects extra-special.  Next time you're feeling a little down, you can re-read the memos in your jar as a reminder of how awesome you really are!  (And make sure to bring home a few blank notes so that you can continue to add to your jar!)

Move & Create!

Friday, January 23 -- 10:00-10:45 AM

Move & Create is an engaging class where little ones ages 3-5 explore movement through fun games, music, and active play!  Each session also includes a creative activity, such as art, storytelling, or building, that ties into the theme of the day to spark imagination while keeping kids moving. 

For kids ages 3 years and up with an adult.  Limited space!  Please pick up a free ticket beginning at 9:30 AM at the children's desk, while supplies last.

Sensory Friendly Browsing Hour

Join us for a special sensory-friendly hour at the library, held before public hours.

This dedicated time is designed to offer a quieter, calmer library experience for children, teens, and adults with sensory sensitivities, along with their families or guardians.

The library will be open only to registered participants during this hour, providing a safe, low-stimulation environment to browse, read, use the computers and explore before regular public hours begin.
