Monthly Writers Group

Do you consider writing to be a passion, hobby, or general interest? If that's the case, then our Monthly Writers Group might just be for you!

Every third Tuesday of the month at Atwater Memorial Library @ 10:30AM, please join us for a friendly discussion with likeminded writers of all levels, where you can share your work, as well as offer constructive criticisms and thoughts on other's writing.

These meetings will be facilitated by Rona, a writer with 40+ years of literature and writing teaching experience. If you are unsure of what to write, here are a few optional prompts:

"These are meant to offer some ideas for writing, not to limit you in any way. Feel free to ignore them entirely and write on whatever seems meaningful for you. Write in any genre you prefer: poetry, fiction, nonfiction/personal essay, etc. If you use a prompt, choose just one of these, and approach it from any angle that seems fun to you."

1. Write a piece inspired in some way by a color.

2. Listen to a favorite piece of music, and let it provide inspiration for your writing.

3. Think of a pivotal moment in your life. Write about it.

4. Consider some of the more memorable people you have met. Write about one of them.

Teddy Bear Clinic

Join us at the library for a hands-on teddy bear clinic! Children are invited to bring a stuffed animal or doll for a playful medical check-up using medical materials. This engaging experience helps children build confidence for future doctor visits while exploring tools such as stethoscopes, bandages, and pretend shots.

Stacey, a Certified Child Life Specialist, provides clinical and private practice support to children and families throughout Connecticut. With expertise in medical preparation and coping, she guides families through medical procedures with clarity and comfort. Come enjoy an evening of learning, play, and supportive guidance.

Ages 2-10.
