Here at the Mattapoisett Free Public Library, we have programs to help you prepare for spring and to ride out the rest of the unpredictable winter.
Starting Saturday, March 4 at 2 pm, join us as we create Wildflower Seed Balls. Exactly as it sounds, a wildflower seed ball is a ball of wildflower seeds you can toss on to bare patches of soil and watch beauty grow. Fun for all ages. No registration is required.
The Teen Advisory Board meets the second Tuesday of the Month and will be meeting this month on Tuesday, March 14 at 4 pm. They will be discussing adding to the library of things, new video games and recruitment. New members are always welcome.

On Saturday, March 26 at 1 pm, teens and adults are invited to participate in Step-by-Step Acrylic Painting: Bright Birches. Join us as Devin (NivedArt) will teach you all about how to handle acrylic paint. This is a program for all skill levels. Either follow along step-by-step or make changes as we go to customize your artwork. All materials are included – Each participant will receive a large 16×20 stretched canvas to work on and take home. As a bonus, we will continue the community acrylic painting, and all participants will have the opportunity to contribute. When the painting is complete, they will be on display in the library. Registration is required.
All programs are free and open to the public. If you have any questions or need special accommodations, please contact the library at 508-758-4171 or email mflp@sailsinc.org.
