Since the dawn of time, storytelling has been an ancient art form of conveying crucial information from generation to generation, helping communities to grow and helping children to engage with their creativity and imagination. This 75-minute workshop with Jacqui Du Toit focuses on engaging participant's imagination with theatrical games and voice exercises. Participants will learn the art of retelling stories from the motherland. Ages: 8-14. 

About Jacqui Du Toit: 
Born and raised in South Africa, Jacqui Du Toit is known for her animated stories from the mother land. By combining gestures, movement, singing, facial expressions, and dramatic impersonations that spark the audience, Jacqui knows how to captivate the audience with more than just words. 

This event is made possible thanks to the generosity of the Friends of the Ottawa Public Library Association.

What better way to get you into the Valentine's spirit than to adopt an adorable Valentine gnome? Enjoy an easy craft and laid-back atmosphere, plus a little hint of magic.

Curious about Dungeons and Dragons (a.k.a. 'that game from Stranger Things')? Give it a try with this one-session-long adventure for beginners!  

D&D is a popular fantasy role-playing game in which you and other players take on the role of different characters to explore, solve puzzles, and fight or outwit monsters. Learn the basic rules of this popular game as you undertake an adventure with fellow players!   

This adventure uses pre-generated characters, so you must register by Thursday February 13th to receive a list of characters to choose from and receive your character info-sheet before game-day. Late registrants and those who do not reply to the character-choosing email will be assigned a random character. 

Ages: 12-18
