A big part of our mission here at North Central Regional Library is connecting people with opportunities to foster individual growth. One of the ways our libraries do that is offering unique arts and crafts programs for adults.
Being creative improves your mental health by reducing stress and anxiety levels. It also gives you a sense of accomplishment and will help you meet new friends who share similar interests. And you have a neat art or craft project to take home with you!
Here are some of the adult programs we are offering in January. (All supplies are provided unless otherwise stated.)
