Open to all ages, this one-hour workshop will explore ways of knowing and experiencing water through shared storytelling.  Participants will reflect on We Are Water themes by listening to local audio stories, exchanging stories with each other, and reflecting as a group.  The workshop will encourage participants to articulate ways that water is meaningful to themselves and explore the different types of relationships we can have with water – survival, practical, scientific, and beyond!

This program is only one of many to be hosted in Winona County in March and April, with the Winona County Historical Society hosting the We Are Water MN traveling exhibit as the centerpiece.  For a complete listing of programs, go to www.winonahistory.org/wearewater.html.

You won’t be able to judge these books by their covers.  Throughout the month of February, the St. Charles Public Library is encouraging readers to go on a blind date with a book.

All books are wrapped in paper, obscuring their titles.  The only clue as to their contents are a unique personals advertisement.  Take one of these books for a spin, sight unseen.  Who knows?  You might find a new life-long love.

Drop by the St. Charles Public Library on Thursday, December 9, from 6-8pm, to create a fun craft for the holidays.  The activity is free and open to all ages.
