Summer has officially begun here at the Mattapoisett Free Public Library. Adults and teens can find themselves busy all summer long just by participating in our Summer Reading Challenge taking place on Beanstack as well as in paper form. While keeping busy, patrons will be entered to win awesome prizes. Call or come into the library to learn more!
Summer also brings curated programs! On Tuesday, July 7, at 11:00 am, all are welcome as we learn Screen Printing! Utilizing a simple method of screen printing, we will print designs on fabrics. All you need to bring is a fabric item you would like to add an image to, and the library will provide the rest of the materials. If you have a particular design in mind, you are welcome bring in your own stencils and fabric paint. We encourage patrons to register now to ensure we have enough materials. Visit our website or call the library to register.
On Friday, July 9, starting at 9:30 am, join us for Summer Meditation and Yoga with Deb Fraine, of the Mattapoisett Wellness Center, leading us through mindful meditation, breathing techniques, and a gentle yoga experience, every Friday morning in July. This is an adaptable experience for all levels of physical ability. Visit our website or call the library to register. Those interested must register for each session they would like to attend.
