Friendship Bracelet Take and Make

Springfield Public Library continues to offer weekly virtual teen programs every Tuesday. Join other teens to make friendship bracelets and chat during the virtual program at 4:30 p.m., Tuesday, September 22. The GoToMeeting link can be found at wheremindsgrow.org. Grab bags with craft supplies for those who plan to attend are available during curbside pick-up hours at the library until the day of the program, while supplies last. Call the library at 541.726.3766 if you have questions.

The current library closure isn’t stopping the library from serving local teens! From regular virtual programming to homework help, from book club to volunteer opportunities, there’s still a lot for teens to do at Springfield Public Library. Follow us on Facebook, check out our online library calendar, or reach out to our Teen Services Librarian Cara Kinsey for more information.

Thanks to the Teen Advisory Board for helping choose our virtual program lineup!
