Grades 7-12: Join us to sculpt your own book page holder using air dry clay, and decorate it with colorful paint!

Book page holders are items used to reduce hand strain when holding a book. They are easy to create and customize, and can me made using a variety of materials. Participants will use materials including air dry clay and paint to create their own book page holder.

This program provides a supportive and inclusive environment for teens to connect with others who understand their unique experiences and challenges.

We provide a low-sensory environment and can accommodate different needs and preferences to ensure that everyone can participate and feel comfortable. From game nights and crafts to movie nights and book discussions, this program offers a range of activities that cater to different interests, needs, and abilities. Whether you are autistic, have ADHD, sensory sensitivities, an intellectual disability, or any other neurodivergent condition, you are invited to join in! Caregivers are not required to stay in the room but should stay in the library to be available if needed.

This program is intended for teens. Space is limited: register in advance to reserve your spot and receive reminders. Registration will guarantee your seat until the event begins. Accessibility needs? Please contact ask@acpl.info as soon as possible - we’d love to help.
