Connect While You Create
At the Library, crafting isn’t just a hobby—it’s a way to build community, spark creativity, and learn by doing. Seasoned makers and curious beginners, join us for hands-on workshops, friendly chatter, and light refreshments.
Open to both teens and adults.
Upcoming Crafting Events
Bookbinding
Every third Saturday of the month, from 3:00pm to 5:00pm, in the Dunaway Community Meeting Room.
Bookbinding is the art of assembling and securing pages into a book. At the Library, we celebrate this tradition through hands-on workshops and demonstrations designed to teach and preserve the bookbinding craft. Our bookbinding offerings are open to learners of all skill levels. Guided by Librarians, explore techniques such as saddle stitching, hardcover binding, and Japanese stab binding.
