Book Club for 4th - 6th Grade

Whether in intermediate, middle, or high school, if you enjoy reading, there is a book club for you at the library!

Triptych Book Club offers a graphic novel, a kids novel, and a teen novel with a similar theme. We will discuss the theme and learn trivia.

A creative place for crafters, drawers, or writers. Feel free to tell us what you're working on and share pictures on Instagram using #daplcreatorslounge.

If unable to join us in person, a short video will be posted on Instagram at 3:30 pm the same day, as well as a kit in the Library St. lobby.

Join together with other fans of books and movies as we hold discussions, enjoy a craft, and maybe more.

Join together with other fans of anime and manga as we hold discussions, enjoy a craft, and maybe more.
