We have been very busy trying to plan for 2023. We want to learn from 2022, looking at what went really well, but also stepping back and seeing what needs improvement.

After taking a few months off to evaluate, assess, and plan, we are excited to start rolling out programs for 2023.

The first two are resurrections from our recent past, Art Sessions and Story Time. Story time is a library staple that won’t be going away any time soon, and Art Sessions are becoming a staple for our library.

We have changed the time and format a little bit. Story time is now open to all children. The activities are still going to be easy and engaging for the younger kids, but the big kids are encouraged to come and participate as long as they can be good sports. Story time will begin Saturday Feb 4 at 11am and continue every Saturday at 11 though March 11.

Art Sessions are open to any student K-12. They are going to be geared for older elementary students, but adaptable for kids on both ends of the spectrum. The activities will still be guided, but there will be more structure and a story involved. (Hopefully a snack as well, since the kiddos asked for one at every single Art Session last time.) Art Sessions begin Thursday, February 2 at 4:30 and will continue every Thursday through March 9.

We are developing new adult and teen programs as well, so stay tuned for more information. Be sure to check the calendar for more information.

Do you have program ideas? It there a topic or an area in which you feel the library could provide information or develop programs to help out the community. We are here to serve the educational and informational needs of the community, so let us know what interests you and how we can better serve you. We welcome all ideas!
