Our Summer Reading dino came down today, and it’s always a little bittersweet saying goodbye to a season of so much library joy!

Families had a blast at the library today making their own tie‑dye drawstring bags. Bright colors, big smiles, and lots of creativity. We love seeing everyone enjoy hands‑on projects together! 🎨

Crafting on your own terms! ✂️🎨

Our latest A La Carte Craft Station was a hit! Instead of following a single step-by-step project, families dropped in, picked their own materials from our craft menu, and built whatever their hearts desired.

From customized tote bags to painted leaves, check out some of the awesome creations made this week.

Missed out? No worries! Watch our calendar for your next chance to participate!
