Tickets are available for our Bubbles and Bling Ladies Night. It takes place Saturday May 3 at 7 p.m. at the Stettler Public Library. Tickets are $20 in advance or $25 at the door. Join us for a fun night of champagne, desserts, prizes, a photo booth, and a silent auction.

Activities are being planned as we speak and I know that we have some surprises up our sleeve.

For those who purchased tickets previously, your tickets will be honoured at the door. Remember that your ticket is your entry into our draw for a beautiful diamond pendant donated by Lawlor Jewelry. Bring a friend and come have a great time.

Also on Saturday, May 3 in the morning is our celebration of Free Comic Book Day starting at 10 a.m. Come in for cereal, cartoons, a comic book swap and most importantly— free comics! Everyone is welcome with or without your superhero costume.

On Wednesday, May 7, kids can make a Mother’s Day gift and card between 4 and 5 p.m. Come have some fun crafting time with Darlene!

On Thursday, May 8 at 6:30 p.m., join us at the library for a workshop with author Ray McGinnis—Writing through Grief and Loss.

At this workshop, Ray McGinnis will lead participants with gentle help for reflecting on, and addressing, grief and loss. In this confidential and supportive setting, you’ll be given a map for understanding how writing in a journal can be a helpful companion and witness to your own unfolding healing journey. Since 1999 Ray has led prayer writing workshops, grief and loss workshops, Psalm writing workshops, poetry and nature walking workshops, Journaling for Health and Wellness workshops and memoir workshops for over 13,000 people across Canada and in over 38 states in the USA. No previous writing experience is required. This workshop is being held together with the Stettler United Church. Please pre-register by calling 403-742-2292.

On Saturday, May 17 at 11 a.m., we’re having our second annual Get Ready to Rumble gaming tournament. The realms of combat include Street Fighter 4, Smash Bros, Pokemon, Call of Duty and more.

We’ll have gaming laptops, our PS4 and other gaming stations set up for you. Pre-register at the library or contact Morgan at ocarinahero123@gmail.com for further details.

The library will be closed on Friday, April 18 to observe Good Friday, but we are open with regular hours on Saturday, April 18 and Monday, April 20. Holidays are a great time to download magazines to your tablet with your library membership and the Zinio app. Keep yourself amused and check out some great Easter recipes from magazines like Canadian Living, Taste of Home, Eating Well, Vegetarian Times, and the Food Network Magazine.

Our outdoor book drop is now available. You can now return your materials after library hours.
