Event Series: Tell a Yarn...

Tell a Yarn...

Wed, August 5 @ 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm EDT

What could be better than working on your favorite knitting or crocheting project while someone reads out loud to you?

Join our yarn circle/adult story time for your dose of productive relaxation! Starting Wednesday, August 5, we'll be reading Off the Top of My Head by Barbara Lazio, where we get to discover a rare glimpse into the life of a neurosurgeon. The best part is that our yarn circlers get a chance to listen to the book before it's published in September!
Dr. Betsy Grunch, MD, FAANS, FACS, FCNS raves, "As a neurosurgeon, I can tell you: This is the side of medicine people rarely see. Honest, human, and at times unexpectedly funny, these stories capture the weight and privilege of caring for patients on their hardest days. It’s a powerful reminder of why what we do matters."

Bring your yarn projects to the Library on Wednesday afternoons from 1:30 to 3 pm in the Sheffer Gallery. We'll read aloud while you work on your project. Or you can just listen — no working necessary! No registration is required, and no yarn instruction provided.
