Have you ever wondered what it was like to live in Ireland? Are you interested in having a penpal abroad? If so then this program is for you! Please join us on Saturday May 4 or Saturday May 11 at 11:30 (30 min) in the meeting room to be matched with an Irish penpal and to create a letter! 

Please note: Communications will be sent and received strictly through the library address. All letters will be monitored by library staff to ensure certain guidelines are followed in terms of appropriate language, content and to ensure that personally identifiable information is not shared. 

Ages 8-13

Ages 6 - 12 years old (we will have crafts for younger siblings too).

Learn to speak Wookie (or Wookie sounds): make your own loyal Droid Cubecraft; test a saber in dual circle; complete a scavenger hunt; learn the planets in the Star Wars universe; fly your plane through the death star and knock down some Stormtroopers. For the younger ones: make a Chewbacca puppet and a yoda or lei bun headband. Origami Yoda awaits you! (yes, we have to say it: May the 4th be with you!). 

Please register. 

Let out your inner Droid, Stormtrooper, Wookie, etc and have a blast! 

Join us in celebrating Star Wars Day, the Jedi way!

In a galaxy far, far away, we will explore science experiments, crafts, games, and more!

Drop-in. Family program.

Saturday, May 4th from 2:30-3:30 pm. 

This year, May the 4th is both Free Comic Book Day AND Star Wars Day! Stupendous!!

While comic books are always free at the library (as long as you return them, of course) we also want to celebrate this occasion. So join us this morning at the library for some geeky (and family friendly) arts and crafts:

• Super hero themed face painting (10:30 am to noon)
• Star Wars themed colouring and crafts (10:30 to 1PM)
• Make your own button with comic book art (10:30 to 1PM)

Bonus points for anyone who shows up in costume or cosplay!!
