Do you love chatting about books? Join our Bring Your Own (BYO) Book Club and come and chat about your current reads. Whether you loved it or hated it, there’s always something to say about the book you’re reading, and here’s your chance to share recommendations with others without following a regular book club schedule.

 

This event is drop-in.

Connect with other new parents in this casual opportunity to socialize and share while your babies play. Drop-in.

Get ready to jingle!

Our ukulele drop-ins get a holiday glow-up in the four weeks before Christmas. Come and learn some holiday tunes, bring your own ukulele or borrow one of ours! At the end of the sessions you’ll be able to play some well-known carols – maybe you’ll be a star at your holiday party!

This class is suitable for ages 8+ and at any ukulele level, even total beginners.

Feel free to drop-in. Those who register will receive a song booklet ahead of time.

Join us as we watch 2040, a visual letter from the filmmaker to his 4-year old daughter, about what her adult life could look like in 2040. Which climate solutions will he focus on? His only rule is that the solutions must be real and available now, not fantasy or prediction.

This film is perfect for families but it is not a children’s movie, so everyone ages 8+ can learn and enjoy. Teachers have rated it as a great tool for grades 3 and up. It is hopeful AND realistic.

Ages 8+. Popcorn provided, bring your own bowl!

 

This session is provided by the New Westminster Climate Action Hub.

This event is part of BC Library Association’s Climate Action Week, a province-wide initiative to highlight the ways communities and libraries are taking action in the climate crisis. Check out all the climate action events at the New Westminster Public Library from November 2-8! nwpl.ca/climate

If you grew seeds in your garden this summer, join us for a hands-on seed cleaning event to get your newly harvested seeds ready for storage (or donation to our seed library). We will be threshing, winnowing, screening and sorting seeds of all types. Bring your seed material from your garden to clean together and consider donating your extras to the seed library!

If you have large quantities of bulky seeds or have divided some bulbs and have some to share, bring them to the event in an informal sharing of your crops.

Meet outdoors in the parking lot at the Main Branch – weather dependent. If it’s pouring rain we’ll be inside in the Auditorium, but it may not be possible to do such messy work inside!

Bring seeds to clean, seeds and bulbs to share, and some small bags or envelopes to take new seeds home again.

Celebrate a summer of reading at our free Summer Reading Club wrap-up party!

2:30pm Welcome remarks and performance by Norden the Magician.

3:00pm Snacks and Activities.

3:30pm Performance by Juno-nominated family folk musician Ginalina!
