Greetings from the Great Bend Public Library! In addition to our regular Genealogy Thursday at 11 a.m. today, we also have Delicious Dishes at 6 p.m. In the spirit of St. Patrick’s day, join Lisa, our resident chef, as she demonstrates how to make Irish Soda Bread.
Tomorrow we have Casual Game Friday in the Teen Spot from 3:45-4:45 p.m. Teens in grades 6-12 can do a barrel roll as they pilot their own Arwing and face off against each other in epic space battles in the Nintendo classic Star Fox 64.
Friday evening is our next Adults’ Night Out Movie at 7 p.m. “In his signature style, James Gunn takes on the original superhero in the newly imagined DC universe with a singular blend of epic action, humor and heart, delivering a Superman who’s driven by compassion and an inherent belief in the goodness of humankind (Swank).” The north doors will be open from 6:45 -7:15 p.m. to allow entry for moviegoers.
We have a full day of events on Tuesday, starting with Early Literacy Story Time at 10:30 a.m. This is an active time for little learners featuring early literacy skills, picture books, finger plays, songs, rhymes, music, art, and movement.
Do you have specific tech questions about your computer or phone? We can help! Bring your device by the Reference Desk starting at 11 a.m. for Tech Tuesday.
Find your local writing community at the Great Bend Public Library. Writers from the Barton County area are welcome to join us monthly on the second Tuesday from 5:30-7 p.m. to share and work on their craft. Join us during our March meeting to practice writing sprints to help lock in and avoid distractions. (We recommend bringing an outline for your current W.I.P.)
On Wednesday, we will be bringing our Teen Café to a slightly younger audience for Tween Scene. Those in grades 3-5 can enjoy a taste of teen programming from 3:45-5 p.m. on Wednesdays this March. We will offer a different activity to try out each week.
Next Thursday evening, turn an old book into a beautiful piece of decor at this month’s Adult Craft, starting at 6 p.m. Supplies are limited; first come, first served. The east entrance will be accessible until 6:15 p.m. to allow entrance.
