New Year, New Goals!

Wednesday, January 14, 5:00-6:00PM

Join the staff of NJ4S and create your personal vision board for 2026. A vision board is a poster or collage where you can visually represent your dreams and goals. Reflect on how you'd like to grow and the experiences you're looking for in 2026, and get it all down on an inspiring poster you can hang in your room!

For kids of all ages, with an adult. Teens are welcome to attend!

Limited space! Free tickets for this event are available at the children's desk the day of the event, beginning at 4:30PM.
