Gamers unite for Teen Game Night!!! Every first Thursday of the month, teens are invited to the Fall River Public Library to play all sorts of collaborative and competitive multiplayer video games on the library projector. Show off your skills, learn about games new and old, and most importantly… have a blast!! For teens ages 13 - 18.
Do you like to knit or crochet? Come join a group of fellow crafters - just bring your yarn, needles, and yourself. It's a great way to make friends, share patterns and tips, and make progress on your projects. Beginners are welcome and no registration is required.

Teens and adults ages 13 and up are invited to join us for a bi-weekly meetup to play Magic: The Gathering Casual Commander!

Open Draw for Teens provides a space in the library every other Saturday for teens to draw and socialize with other creative peers! Every session we will have ample time to free draw, and occasionally will host workshops on paper crafts like making zines, flipbooks, pop-up comics, as well as assorted drawing exercises. Bring your sketchbooks, drawing pads, loose paper, old magazines, your favorite pens and pencils… whatever it is you use to draw! Some basic materials will also be available to use each session. For teens ages 13 - 18.
Both returning and new members are invited to join us on the third Wednesday of each month for a different kind of book club--one with no required books to read! Instead, everyone can share their own recommendations of a book they're enjoyed recently as we meet for general book chat and afternoon tea. Light refreshments will be served. Bring your favorite teacup (if you want) and a book or two to share! For questions, contact Betsy Washburn at 508-324-2700 ext. 3.
