Annual Plant and Book Sale Coming Up!

Save the date: it’s time again for our Annual Plant and Book Sale! This is one of the library’s two big fundraisers for the year, and all money raised goes to this year’s summer reading program.

This year, we’ll have “personal shopping.” Fill out a form (online or on paper) with which categories of books you’d like and how many, and we’ll choose a selection of them for you ahead of time! Details to come.

Of course, we’ll also have a huge selection of books to browse for $0.25 each, DVDs, video games, and puzzles for $1 each, or a “fill a bag” option for $5, and plants! Garden fruits and veggies, annuals, perennials, succulents, and houseplants, all priced low and ready to go home with you or be gifted to someone special. And, if you have more of a black thumb than green, we’ll have crocheted plants as well….MUCH harder to kill those. You will definitely not want to miss this big event at the library!!

Teen Life Skills: Cooking Registration

For our teen cooking workshops this month, we will be requiring registration with three easy questions that will help us immensely. Please share if you know teens or parents of teens who are interested!

Register through the Google Form.

Classes are free and will be held at 2:00pm Fridays July 7, 14, and 21 (note time change from original summer reading schedule). Teens must be registered in advance; if they are not, there is no guarantee that there will be supplies/ingredients for them or that they will be able to participate. 

If a teen is registered and plans change, please let us know as soon as possible that they are unable to attend any of the Fridays they are signed up for. 

All three Fridays are not required but if a teen does attend all three, they will be receiving a special gift at the end of the third session. 

Adult Craft Night-Butterfly Feeders

We are going to make butterfly or bird baths for the garden, using pots and saucers. Adults (18+). Please RSVP by clicking “going” on the Facebook event or by contacting the library (913-886-2060 or director@nortonvillelibrary.org).
