Our new Book Dragons Club is your place to meetup with other teens who love to read and be creative. There will be a slate of programs under the banner of “Book Dragon Club” including writing programs, craftivism programs, open mic nights, social meetings, reading challenges, civic engagement and more all dedicated to celebrating teens and the Humanities.  These programs are sponsored by the PA Humanities Council. These programs are for teens ages 13-18.                                   

Our meetup group offers a chance for teens take the lead in developing humanities programming at the library and make meaningful connections. We will make a Craftivism project at each meeting. This program is for teens ages 13-18. No registration required.
