At the Library

By Brianna Dunbar

Last Monday at 4 p.m. was the starting of the Teen Coloring Club for sixth-to 12th-graders. This club meets every Monday from 4 ? 5 p.m. to help teenagers de-stress and calm down for an hour after starting a new week at school.

I was able to go and I had so much fun with all of the kids whoshowed up. We had a good sized group of teens come for the first week. We listened to music and socialized with everyone while coloring our choice picture. It was interesting to see everybody?s different styles in how they colored.

Next week we are going to be doing a stained glass design to put on the window in the young adult section of the library. I can?t wait to see how it?s all going to turn out! There is going to be a coloring club for younger kids and it might be possible for an adult coloring club soon. I know people have asked about one, so if you are a teenager with nothing to do on Mondays from 4 ? 5 p.m., come check us out at the library. We hope for more teens next week. Oh, by the way, it?s FREE!

These are the new materials available at the library this week.
