Literary Art: Wood Burning - March 12th at 5:30pm

Shelf Indulgence: Book Club March 17th at 5:00pm in-person and via Zoom
We select a new book to read each month and we make an effort to read from different genres. We will be reading the YA graphic novel Squire by Sara Alfageeh and Nadia Shammas. Email nick@creswell-library.org or call him at the library at 541-895-3053 to join.
Knitting Group - Every Saturday at 11am

Coffee and Books - Tuesdays at 11:00am
Join us every Tuesday morning at 11am for coffee and books at our book club. No need to stress about finding the book club book and staying on pace with everyone else. Read what you want at your own speed and share with us when you are ready. Everyone who comes talks about the books they are reading or have recently finished. No pressure to share if you just want to join us to get ideas about new books to read.
Blood Drive - March 24th 12 - 6pm
Did you know that in America, over 42,000 blood products are used by patients every day? That's one blood transfusion needed every two seconds. These life-saving transfusions are crucial for treating acute care needs like trauma and childbirth-related blood loss, as well as managing diseases such as cancer, surgeries, organ transplants, and more. The need for blood is constant, not just during major disasters. When you donate blood with Bloodworks Northwest this Spring, you’re helping prevent shortages in hospitals across the Pacific Northwest. Make an appointment today for March 24th at Creswell Library and help save lives. When you donate in March, you can enter to win a sun-soaked trip for two to Kauai.
