After Hours Events
Grab your friends and head to the Library for After Hours events!
During After Hours programs, the Library will be closed to all but the participants of the program; these are “lock-in” events. Teens and Tweens must have a permission form on file, and arrive promptly at their assigned time. Once in the library building, participants may not leave the building until the end of the event. Participants will be asked to adhere to all rules and safety protocols, so we can all have the most fun possible! Library Staff will be on hand to supervise and moderate the events.
