Join friends at the O'Neill Branch to build, build, BUILD! Let your imagination run wild with LEGOs, Magna-Tiles and other building toys. The Library has plenty of LEGO pieces, so you don't need to bring your own. For children ages 5 and up. Children under age 7 must be accompanied by a caregiver. LEGO pieces are choking hazards for young children.

Darning is a fabric mending technique that involves reinforcing or re-weaving a portion of fabric by hand. In this workshop, we’ll learn how to visibly mend holes and weak areas in sweaters, socks, and other knit fabrics using seed stitch and square darning techniques. You’ll leave with a sampler of both techniques that you can refer back to when tackling your own darning projects at home. Suitable for beginners with little or no darning experience, though it does help if you have some experience with hand sewing. Registration is required.

Do you feel overcommitted but under connected? Over the course of this workshop we'll come together to learn, discuss, brainstorm, and provide blueprints for building deeper purpose and fostering belonging in our community. Whether you’re a student, organizer, young professional, or just someone who feels powerless, this is the place for you. We believe community is resistance. Come for conversation, snacks, and a sense of shared purpose irl. Registration helpful.
