February Events at Montclair Library
Happy February! Montclair Library is ready to welcome you this month for authors, animals, arts & crafts and more. A couple other things for your long-term calendar: Our UNBOUND Book Art & Craft Contest returns this April for its fourth year, and our Spring Book Sale will be Saturday, May 14. Look for details on both events on our website and in upcoming newsletters. The Book Sale page also has our newly-updated, super-handy book donation guidelines.

Beautiful Mess - 3:00-4:30pm
What are we making? Whatever you want -- and it's going to be beautiful. And messy. This afterschool art program allows kids to focus more on the process than the product, whether we're using clay, watercolors, pencils or odds and ends. We might not know where this art project is going, but we'll have lots of fun getting there. For children of all ages; children 5 and under should be accompanied by a parent or caregiver.
