Summer Library Activities!

Posted on June 2, 2010

Students may be interested in attending one of our teen writing or drawing workshops over the summer. The writing workshops are at Fairfield and Twin Hickory and are being led by Chris Brown, a published teen author who grew up in Henrico. The drawing workshops are at Varina, Gayton, and Dumbarton and are being led by graphic artist Forrest Young. I am attaching a file with the list of them, including also a babysitting workshop to be held at 5 locations.

Students need to register with their library card for any of these workshops. The registration started yesterday (6/1) and continues up to the date of the first session. For a live link and to sign up,

use this URL: http://www.henricolibrary.org/evanced/lib/eventcalendar.asp?Lib=ALL Each workshop is limited to 15 teens, so an early registration is a good idea. All programs are free and for ages 12 to 18 only.
