Bath bombs, author talks, and more for teens at the library

Jan 22, 2020

MATTAPOISETT — The library will offer teens an author lecture, a Valentine’s Day craft and a workshop to make bath bombs in February.

On Tuesday, Feb. 11 at 5 p.m., join librarians at a TechConnect Workshop: Optimal Resume. Optimal Resume is a free library service that helps users every step of the way through the hiring process from creating their first resume to practicing for interviews. Join librarians for need-to-know facts about Optimal Resume. Recommend for ages 15 and up. Participants should register by Feb. 4.

On Friday, Feb. 21 at 1 p.m., Mark Parisi, the creator of “Off the Mark” and the Marty Pants books, will be coming to the library to teach character design. Parisi will be sharing all he has learned as a cartoon artist through fun, laughter, and sketching. The event is recommended for ages 9 and up. Participants should register before Feb. 14.

This program is supported in part by a grant from the Mattapoisett Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.

On Saturday, Feb. 22 at 1 p.m., join the library for bath bomb creation. Participants will learn a simple recipe that they can recreate at home. Recommend for ages 12 and up. Participants should register by Feb. 15.

On Saturday, Feb. 29 at 1:30 p.m., Dungeons and Dragons will meet again to continue their quest. New players are always welcome, recommended for ages 12 and up.

The game lounge will be open Wednesday, Feb. 5 at 4 p.m. and Tuesday, Feb. 18 at 1 p.m. Craft Tuesday continues every Tuesday at 4 p.m. with a new craft.
