Junk Journaling: Scrapbooking's messier little sibling.

The point of a Junk Journal is to fill a journal with little things that make you happy! Unlike scrapbooking, the final product isn't for others to look at in the future–it's all about making something, right now, with what you have on hand. Of course, if you love what you've made, there's nothing stopping you from showing it off!

The library is building a display and we need your help! Come celebrate Ann Arbor's bicentennial by sharing what you love most about the city. Drop in and write a list, draw a picture, or tell a story. The possibilities are endless! We'll provide some prompts and the writing and drawing utensils. When you're finished, you can give it to us for the display or you can choose to take it home.

This project is part of Ann Arbor 200, AADL’s commemoration of the city’s bicentennial year.

We'll outline fun Summer shapes to create a colorful seasonal painting.

Come use a variety of self-adhesive craft supplies to make a fun picture that pops off the page. We will have foam shapes, gem stickers, googly eyes, and stickers!

Join Jesse Deucher and Sarah Kairis, teachers at Ann Arbor Open and the creators of PandaFit, for fun games to keep kids active! This program is specifically designed for autistic and other neurodivergent kids, but all are welcome!

Towers, spaceships, houses, and more! Come discover what you can build with magnetic tiles.
