Upcoming Events

Are you interested in writing, but don’t know how to start? Or maybe you’re a seasoned writer, looking for a place to get feedback on your work? Join the Tabb Writers Group! Our monthly meetup on the 1st and 3rd Monday of the month (except on holidays) provides writers a space to work on their projects, offer and receive critiques, and even to meet other local writers. No registration required.

Questions? Call 757-890-5120 or email reference@yorkcounty.gov.
 

Blow off some steam and get creative at our "Bad" Art Night. Make a painting, draw a picture, or scribble uncontrollably (on paper). If you work better with constraints, an art prompt will be provided. No pressure to finish--take this time to relax and unwind. Talent and skill will not be judged--but all works will show up on library social media.

Materials provided. For Adults and Teens accompanied by an Adult--registration required as space and supplies are limited. Questions? Call 757-890-5120.

Join us on the 3rd Wednesday of each month from 1:30pm - 3:00 pm for Memory Café at the Tabb Library!

This social gathering is for anyone personally affected by memory loss and their care partners. Each café will offer its guests the chance for unstructured conversation, refreshments and getting to know others with similar memory changes. Care Partners and/or spouses must attend as well. The café is organized and hosted by trained facilitators.

RSVP is not required and there is no cost to attend. For more information, call 757-246-1919 or 757-220-4751 or call Marjorie Hilkert, Regional Coordinator at 757-345-6977.

This project is supported in part by grant # 90ADPI0009-01-00 from the U.S.  Administration for Community Living Department of Health and Human Services, Washington, DC 20201.
