A farmers market is planned and will take place only if the weather cooperates.

Mahjong Mornings offers open play for enthusiasts and newcomers alike. The classic tile based game, originating in 19th century China, brings together three or four players and blends skill, strategy, and luck. First timers can learn with a set provided by the library, while seasoned players can bring their own tiles and friends for a competitive round. This relaxed morning gathering is a chance to build strategy skills, keep the mind sharp, and connect with fellow players in a welcoming setting. Cost is free. For ages 16 and up. No registration required. Located in the Blocher Room.

Bring your current projects to a calm, distraction free workspace and create alongside other crafters. This welcoming club meets in the NMPL Blocher Room, providing a peaceful setting to focus, share tips, and make steady progress. Stay for a little while or settle in for as long as you like. All experience levels and all types of crafting are encouraged. The program is free, there is no registration required, and there are no age requirements.

A weekly knitting and crochet group meets at the library in the NMPL Conference Room, offering a relaxed space to work on current projects and connect with others. All experience levels are welcome, and a helpful teacher is available for those just starting out. Beginners are encouraged to bring a pair of needles in sizes 6 to 9 and a skein of light-colored worsted weight yarn, labeled 4, since lighter shades make it easier to see individual stitches. The program is free, open to all ages, and does not require registration.

Step up to the mic for karaoke and sing your favorite songs.

Led by Eva Webb, this monthly community drum circle at Lake Clare invites people to slow down, listen, and share rhythm together in a welcoming setting. Newcomers and experienced drummers are equally welcome. Participants may bring a drum, shaker, hand percussion instrument, or any simple rhythm maker. Around 30 extra percussion instruments will be available, so attendance does not depend on owning a drum. It is also fine to sit back, listen, and enjoy the peaceful lakeside atmosphere. The gathering meets at the Pavilion at the Fitness Park at Lake Clare. This is a free community event, and optional donations help L4L Community Studios keep programs affordable and donation based. The circle supports L4L’s mission to foster safe, nourishing spaces for mind, body, heart, and spirit through faith, fitness, food, fellowship, and fun on land and water.
