Unity Craft: Paper Flower Bouquets

Drop in to participate in this special community art project, in partnership with the Lost Souls Public Memorial Project.  Learn how to make a tissue paper flower with our teen volunteers, then make several to leave at the library.  Our teen volunteers will create beautiful bouquets that will be displayed in September.  Your flowers, in bouquets of flowers made by other people in our community, will represent you and the contributions you make to our great town.  All ages are welcome to join in.  Grown-ups, please let children know in advance t

Library Laboratory: Marshmallow Towers

With the recent rising intrigue in science, the volunteers of the VLC have established the Library Laboratory. Our volunteers have made creative and educational presentations catered towards elementary-aged children. This club will allow participants to take part in group and individual events to increase their curiosity and knowledge of STEM topics. In hour-long meetings that take place every other week, kids will learn about a specific science topic supplemented with a related hands-on activity. 

DIY Slime

Get messy at the library and leave with some slime! This program will be held outside. In case of bad weather, we will move it inside. Please register online here for either the 2pm or 3 pm session. 

Gr. 2 and up.

Color a Smile

It's Teamwork Tuesday!  Families can drop by between 4:00 and 7:00 to color a picture -- or a few -- that will be sent to someone in need of some cheer.  This event is in partnership with Color A Smile, a nonprofit organization that distributes cheerful drawings to seniors, troops overseas, and anyone in need of a smile.
