The library is offering a new craft and arts program for adults called Creative Hour at the Library. According to Joey May, Community & Youth Services Librarian, the new program will be on Thursdays with two separate sessions at 1:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. in the large meeting room downstairs.
“We wanted to target that after-work group but also offer an early afternoon session for people who may be retired or have that time available,” May said.
Creative Hour will feature a variety of arts and crafts activities for adults, and May said 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,” she said. May said the library is planning to offer the classes through the school year and, depending on interest, may branch out into summer as well.
