We are collecting old, used, or damaged plastic fashion dolls for our October Teen Craft Night — Zombie Barbies!

Missing a shoe? Bad haircut? Seen better days? Perfect! Instead of throwing them away, donate them to the library and we’ll give them a delightfully spooky second life. 👻

📦 Donations can be dropped off at Paris Public Library.
Thank you for helping us make this teen craft possible!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for Kids Craft! 🎨 We had a wonderful time creating colorful Paper Molas in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month!

Missed yesterday’s Kids Craft? No worries! Paper Mola Take-Home Kits are available in the Children’s Room while supplies last. These kits are a fun and educational way for children to explore art and culture at home!

And be sure to stop by and see the beautiful Paper Molas on display created by 9-year-old Annabella! She did an amazing job! ☺️🤗
