We had an amazing time during first Fabric Collage Ornament Workshops with Lynn Brockway on October 15th & 18th!

This hands-on class was entry level for learning the art of layering fabrics to create your own festive wall hanging ornament — and evereone came out of this class learning a new skill! From bold reds to cozy blues, each ornament was unique and full of personality.

We’re especially thrilled to have been the first to partner with our very own turor to kick-start her journey of teaching her love for fabric collage.

Thank you to everyone who joined us — stay tuned for more creative workshops to come!

On 10/16 we welcomed this year’s 2nd graders from Sauquoit Valley Elementary School for a fun and magical visit to their local and beloved Clayville Library! We had an amazing turnout — about 60 children were present and have opened their library cards.

A quick thank you to Magic Matt Entertainment for bringing his incredible energy and imagination to our library. The kids were very engaged and the magic truly filled the room. 🥳

We’re so grateful for this wonderful partnership and can’t wait to welcome next year’s 2nd graders for more magical memories.

Here’s a look at some of the smiles!
