ArtStudio Kids is an open-ended, heart-led process art program! Each session, we focus on unique materials and techniques, rather than specific project outcomes to create a unique work of art. This allows children to explore their creativity, practice innovation, and learn through play.
We will occasionally feature artists from the community to come in and lead us in our artistic pursuits. Check each event listing for special guest announcements! This program can get MESSY! Dress accordingly!

NEW to Graphic Novel Book Club: PLEASE REGISTER for this series throughout the calendar to attend! You will register once for the entirety of the series. Books ready at the front desk after each meeting for checkout--if you miss a book club, just stop at the main desk for our next read! Join us for an awesome Graphic Novel reading adventure! Each session, we will discuss a pre-selected book and complete an activity related to our book selection! If you are going to miss a session, do NOT cancel your registration! This would cancel your spot in the whole series! Instead email carolyn@mononalibrary.org. For parents: Despite contrary belief, research has shown that Graphic Novels are incredibly beneficial to children and their literacy skills! Graphic novels often contain more advanced vocabulary than chapter books, are helpful to readers with dyslexia, and are a way to encourage reluctant readers to engage in reading.
