 Craft With Me 

For our November projects, we will be painting on wood rounds,

with a Thanksgiving theme planned as well as  

making Christmas Gnomes out of pine cones.

 

The first session will be on November 1, 2024 from 1-3 p.m.  

A second session is scheduled for November 6, 2024 from 6-8 p.m.

Please advise Lori (641-947-6700) if you are planning to attend and which session. 

Having a 'head count' will allow us to have the necessary supplies on hand for the project. 

This is a free project, but donations are accepted in order to purchase craft supplies for future projects.

 

Recommended Reading!

 Melcher-Dallas Library patrons have been enjoying books written by Rebecca Yarros.

We have a new book by, Marie Force, entitled In the Air Tonight. 

In the Air Tonight, is a departure from her normal writing style.  Come check out what we have to offer, as you won't want to be caught without something to read over the various November holidays!
