The Amesbury Public Library invites kids to come read to a dog at the Library! Read to a dog to help improve reading skills and get comfortable with reading aloud with only a very cuddly dog to hear you! This program will have Gus, a certified reading dog, and his caretaker at the library in our Teen Loft! Sign up for a 15 minute slot. (Available from 3:45-4:30)

Combining music, literature and poety, this concert is sure to please everyone. Moods of the Sea captures the stylistic choices of these works, with undercurrents and rippling chords. An superb program that hints at motifs from folk traditions that expand to create full movements of beautiful sounds. You won't want to miss this one!

The Trustees of Reservations invites ages 12 and up to a valentine craft making workshop! This Valentine’s Day, give a gift from the sea! From seaweed pressings to shell collages, beach treasures make beautiful greetings and keepsakes. Join this workshop to learn fun craft ideas and make marine art with our coastal educators. This program will start with a 30-45 minute beach walk to collect coastal treasures, and then we will head inside for crafting. You may choose to skip the beach walk and just join for the crafting portion. Materials and inspiration provided.
