(Y) A Call for Teen Volunteers: Program Materials Prep

Teens 14 - 17 Calling all creative teens! Join us for a hands‑on volunteer session where you’ll help prepare craft materials for our upcoming library programs. This is the perfect opportunity for artsy teens looking to earn volunteer hours while having fun and getting a little messy.

Volunteers will help with a variety of tasks including dipping paper in dye, cutting, tracing, and folding—all essential steps in getting our future library crafts ready to go.

Dress to mess! We’ll be working with materials that may stain, so wear clothing you don’t mind getting colorful.

Come spend the afternoon creating, helping, and supporting your library community!
