Fall @ the Library: Lego Club, Story Hour, Art Classes


Summer Reading has come to a close – but never fear! There’s plenty to do at the library this fall ~ and it's free.

Lego Club resumes on Tuesday, September 11at its regular time, from 5 – 7 pm. Every week there’s a new construction challenge. It might be a tower, a bridge, a maze. Open to all. Sponsored by the BOOKS Program and Senator Akshar.

Story Hour resumes on Tuesday, September 11 at 10:15 am. It’s called story hour, but there’s so much more going on that makes this a true opportunity for early childhood literacy. Afterwards, head upstairs to check out books or one of the preschool backpacks.

Art Classes with Johanna begin on Sunday, September 16 at 1 pm, and will continue on the third Sunday of each month through February. Each month there’s a different topic. This month’s media is art markers and the topic is “people in motion”.

“These are the same kinds of markers that a lot of comic book and graphic novel illustrators use,” says Johanna. After experimenting with the professional grade media, Johanna will have students draw a favorite character. Feel free to bring an illustration or photo you want to use as inspiration. Art classes are open to emerging artists of all ages, from 8 to 108, though children younger than 12 need to be accompanied by an adult. There are 15 spaces available for the September 16 workshop, so please register ahead of time by calling Johanna at 607-659-7375.  Sponsored by FLLS Outreach mini-grant.

Candor Free Library is located at 2 Bank Street just behind the Village Hall. Got questions? Call the library.
