Our teen art series continues, as we welcome back Heather Beck to share the art of WOODBURNING! Join us Friday, Setpember 6th from 3:30-5:00pm to try your hand at creating something in this unique medium. Space is limited, so registration is encouraged. Recommended for grades 7-12.

Would you consider yourself “healthy”? Why or why not? Join us in welcoming personal trainer Alex Wenger (the “well-read meat-head”), whose approach to answering this question might surprise you. In addition to discussing the relationship between health and body image, we’ll also walk (or jog) away with some simple tips and exercises that can be squeezed into even the busiest of schedules.

This program is geared toward teens in grades 7-12, and registration is strongly encouraged.

“Adulting 101” is brought to you with federal funds provided by the Institute of Museum and Library Services and administered by the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners.

Local artist Libby Meehan returns for a deeper look at using a sewing machine — for both artistic and practical purposes. We’ll learn the basics and then put them to use, turning worn clothes and other fabric into a useful and unique tote bag! Bring in your own materials to upcycle, or choose from what Libby has to offer.

This program serves as a primer for our Clothing Alteration and Cosplay workshop, scheduled for September 23rd, which will introduce more advanced topics. While it is not required, please consider attending both workshops in order to get the most out of each.

This program is geared toward teens in grades 7-12, and registration is strongly encouraged.
