Whitehall Public Library announces the following January Events.
Something New! - The library has purchased 21 Playaway Launchpads for the children’s collection. A Playaway Launchpad is a secure, pre-loaded learning tablet just for kids. They are fun, safe and educational! Next time you’re in the Children’s Library look for the orange cases, as each tablet is labelled with the age, grade and theme for each device. All of the pre-loaded apps are listed on the back. The tablets are secure; no content can be downloaded, so parents/caregivers don’t have to worry. Check ‘em out!
Suit Yourself: The Card Game Group - Monday January 4 @ 12-3 p.m.
Start the week with a full deck…of cards! Join this game group for an afternoon of fun card games and good company. We’ll meet weekly in our Second Chapter Café to enjoy 500 and other trick-taking games in a nice atmosphere fit for a King! (Or at least a Jack.) No registration required. Questions? Call Brandon at 412-882-6622.
Autism Support Group - Tuesday January 5 @ 7 p.m.
This monthly program serves as a meeting place and support group for those whose lives are touched by autism and autistic loved ones. The group focuses on open sharing and presentations by educators and experts as moderated by Heidi Hess of the Autism Society of Pittsburgh. We meet on the first Tuesday of the month. No registration required.
The Bridge Connection: Card Lessons with Kathy Depuy - Wednesday January 6 @ 1 p.m.
Join the library for a six-week course that will help you to “bridge” that gap and become a star player yourself. Kathy DePuy, councilmember and advanced player, will teach you the ins and outs of contract bridge –a game of dealings, auctions, declarers and ranks! What better place to learn this game in than the City of Bridges! Refreshments will be provided. Registration required.
Matinée in the Café! - Friday January 8 @ 1:15 p.m.
Stop by the Second Chapter Cafe and join other adults to watch a different film each week! No registration required. Space is limited.
