Reading to dogs has been proven to improve reading ability and build reading confidence. Plus, it's fun! This drop-in event is open to all ages and will take place in the Children's Area by the paperbacks.
Important reminders:
Young children must be monitored by an adult at all times
All participants are expected to be calm and kind while interacting with the dogs
Always ask a handler before petting a dog, and never touch them inappropriately (i.e. poking their eyes)
Please wait your turn if there is already someone with the dog to avoid crowding
Adults, please help to enforce these rules. Thank you!

Discover different artistic mediums with this free program for teens!
This club occurs every 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month and is an open-ended exploration of art that welcomes all creative levels and encourages socialization with other art enthusiasts. In addition, each month participants will be presented with an optional prompt they can follow. Projects created from these prompts will have the opportunity to be displayed in the teen section of the library (with the artist's permission).
Materials will be provided. No registration required.
For ages 13 to 18. In order to create a learning environment appropriate for teens, age limits will be enforced.
Are you a teen with a love of reading, but can never seem to find anyone to talk about books with? Then this new club is for you!
Hosted by two teen volunteers from our Youth Executive League at the Library, this group aims to provide a fun and relaxed way to read what you love and make new friends in the process.
We'll have a different book to talk about for every meeting, but if you aren't interested in some of the selections, you're free to pick something else and talk about that instead. Plus, we'll have snacks!
10 library copies of the "assigned" book will be provided to participants each month. No registration required!
For ages 13 to 17. In order to create a learning environment appropriate for teens, age limits will be enforced.
