Happenings

in and around the community library

The Bookmark Party!

We’re having a BOOKMARK PARTY and you’re all invited!

Drop into the library (with your parent or guardian) on Saturday 30th May between 10am and Noon and make a fabulous illustrated bookmark. It could be for you – you’ll never lose your place in your favourite book again! – or for someone special.

The event is being hosted by the legendary Chris Geeson Creative Clubs and is FREE. No need to book – just rock-up. Allow 20-30 minutes to take away something awesome.

Get Creative!

This Spring try something new, whatever your artistic ability!

You’re invited to GET CREATIVE WITH BRUSHO – a highly pigmented powder paint. This is a fun and friendly art session specially for adults, hosted and guided by local artist Jacquie Sheffield. All materials are provided so you just need to bring yourself, an apron and a willingness to try something new!

The session is on Wednesday 3rd June from 10am until Noon. It’s kindly being funded by Easingwold District Lions and is FREE. There are limited places so if you fancy airing those hidden artistic leanings you’ll need to book by calling into the library or giving us a ring on 01609 534584.

Storytime

Storytime – every Thursday during term time from 10.15am to 11.00am. FREE story readings for under 5s accompanied by a parent or carer. There’s no need to book; just rock up. We’re pushchair-friendly too – you can park them inside the library.

Pull on those comfy seven-league boots, shoulder your faithful old knapsack, and install the magic bean app on your phone. Then stroll your wide-eyed and unsuspecting pre-schoolie along to the library to enjoy one of our lovely volunteers bringing a children’s tale or two to life.

Whilst it’s great that Storytime is popular, due to increasing numbers and the limited space available we’re not able to accommodate children from childcare providers. Thank you for your understanding.

Knit & Natter

Knit & Natter, run by our lovely volunteers, meets on the first and third Tuesday of each month from 10am until Noon.

Join us for good chat and a cuppa. Catch up on your latest project or start a new one. All abilities are welcome and if you get yourself into knots our knitting and crocheting wizards are sure to be able to untangle things for you.
