Events Calendar

Wouldn’t it be amazing to feel more wellbeing this summer?  Feel more connected to those little (or not so little) people in your life?  This summer, let’s explore positive psychology (happiness) hacks you can use with your family.  Led by Debi Kennedy, each workshop will include open-ended crafts and activities for families to explore together, as well as a take home worksheet with additional information for the adults.  If you joined us last summer, make sure to come this year for NEW topics!

Finding Joy! (Gratitude)

“Joy is the simplest form of gratitude.” ― Karl Barth  

 While children may be excellent at exhibiting joy, research has shown that children under age 5 may not be able to express true gratitude.  How then, can we turn the importance of gratitude into a daily practice for our children? We’ll practice expressing joy & gratitude with simple, yet meaningful, activities for you and your child to do together. 

Enjoy messy, exploratory art projects with Bubbler artist Renee outside on the Pinney patio! Fun for all ages.

Read aloud to Libby, a certified therapy dog from Alliance Therapy Dogs. Reading to an attentive, non-judgmental audience is a great way for young people to build fluency, and being with a pet has many other proven health benefits.

This program is first-come, first-serve, so drop in at any time. Bring books from home, or pick them out from the library.

This program is recommended for ages 5 and up.

An open art studio experience for ALL ages and abilities.  Messy clothes recommended!

Bring your instrument from home and jam with other kids at the library! Local musician, Julia, will have her violin, guitar, and some unique instruments handy to help guide and encourage the group. We'll also have some egg shakers and other instruments for those without an instrument to use. Kids of all ages welcome. Come jam with us!
