Now recruiting for the Teen Advisory Board!

Apply now to join the Teen Advisory Board!

The Teen Advisory Board is a group that meets once a month during the school year and works with the Teen Services Librarian to develop programs and services for the community.

Open to teens in grades 9 through 12, the recruitment process involves submitting an application and being interviewed by current TAB members. Teens will have the opportunity to create their own programs and take on leadership roles.

Meetings are the second Wednesday of each month from 6-7 pm. TAB members will be requited to complete 5 hours of volunteering per year with TAB.

Applications are available here.

Teen Crochet 101 at the Library

Last Saturday the Library hosted its first Teen Crochet 101 class. This free new program is for teens ages 15-19 and was created and led by Aspen, one of our Teen Advisory Board members. Teen Library Intern Alyssa assisted with the class.

Teen Crochet 101 classes are designed for beginners and limited to teens ages 15-19. No experience is necessary and all materials are provided. The first class covered materials and basic stitches. The next class will cover patterns, color switching and more. A beginner project will be introduced in the third session.

On the day of the event, we were surprised by a large donation of yarn from a community member, so all attendees were able to choose several colors and sizes to take home and practice.

Join us for the next two classes!

Session 2 Sat. Oct. 22, 2:30-4:30 pm

Session 3 Sat. Nov. 5, 2:30-4:30 pm
