Benedek Memorial Library

Make Your Own Sundae Ending Party!
2026-08-08 12:00 - 13:00 (America/New_York) | Benedek Memorial Library in the MHJ Meeting House
Come and create your best ice cream sundae and see the raffle prizes pulled. All reading times must be recorded by August 7 at the Library to get a raffle ticket. No raffle tickets will be awarded at the ending party. Let’s have a sweet ending to the 2026 Summer Read Plus: “Unearth a Story” program.

Creative Community

To encourage creativity and community all are welcome to participate in a weekly sketchbook practice at the library. Bring your sketchbook, journal, coloring book, or junk journal and enjoy an evening being creative and sharing with others. You can work on your own project or participate in a group project. There will be some art supplies available to try along with tips and tricks for being creative. All are encouraged to share ideas and techniques with each other.
