The library is offering a new craft and arts program for adults called Creative Hour at the Library. Creative Hour will feature a variety of arts and crafts activities for adults, and they will be geared toward all levels, from beginners to more advanced options throughout the year. If someone just wants to get out of the house and be creative, this is for them. Starting in the new year, we will offer the same program for two consecutive weeks so patrons can come every other week.
