Gather to talk about books while doing crafts. Share what we are reading, favorite authors, and craft projects, which can be crochet, knit, or anything else. Register to receive a Zoom link.

After a long winter, come share the crafts you are working on and the books you've read: Tell us about your favorite authors, what you are reading right now, or even books you didn't like! Work on your crocheting, knitting, or other projects and show us what are doing. Share creative ideas for new crafts. 

For new project ideas, the Akron Summit County Public Library has lots of books, including A Year in Crafts:  52 Seasonal Projects to Delight or Inspire by Clare Youngs.

Join us virtually on Zoom and connect with our community!

About the branch

Highland Square is one of Akron’s most iconic communities, hosting numerous street fairs and festivals, eclectic shopping and dining, and a vibrant night life. The extremely diverse neighborhood is home to seniors, young families, artists, educators, and students of all demographics. The Highland Square Branch Library is a reflection of this diverse neighborhood, with a standout LGBTQ collection and a rich programming schedule.

Reference assistance, computers and computer classes, WiFi, copiers, scanning, and faxing round out the services provided within the library. The full scope of community participation, however, is seen in local senior care facilities, local schools and preschools, and neighborhood festivals where Highland Square Branch Library staff plays an active role in creating experiences for participants of all ages. Visit us soon on the Square.
