Wednesday Craft Nights at the Old Forge Library

The Old Forge Library, located at 220 Crosby Boulevard, is inviting the community to gather, create, and unwind with a new season of free crafting projects as part of its popular Wednesday Craft Night. Beginning January 7 at 5:00 p.m., craft nights will take place every Wednesday throughout the winter and into the spring.

Designed to be relaxed, social, and welcoming to all ages and skill levels, Wednesday Craft Night emphasizes creativity over perfection. Participants are encouraged to experiment with materials, try new techniques, and enjoy the process of making rather than focusing on a single “right” result. Each session offers a chance to explore ideas, share laughs, and connect with others in a friendly, low-pressure environment.

The program has become a favorite for families, friends, and seniors alike, offering a shared creative experience that brings generations together around the craft table. Whether attendees are seasoned crafters or trying something new for the first time, everyone is welcome to participate at their own pace.

Planned projects include:

January 7: Popsicle Stick Sled
January 14: Spiral Paper Roll Snowflake
January 21: No-Sew Snowman Pillow
January 28: Felt Bird Bookmark
February 4: Fabric Hearts
February 11: Drum Crafts
February 18: Weaving to Hang
February 25: Wool Llamas
March 4: Pipe Cleaner Cactus
March 11: St. Patrick’s Day Gnome
March 18: Pom Pom Chicks
March 25: Easter Quilling
April 1: Easter Egg Dyeing

The program is open to the public and is both family- and senior-friendly. Children under the age of 10 must be accompanied by an adult.

All supplies are provided free of charge, though quantities are limited. Advance registration is requested to ensure adequate materials. To reserve a spot for one or more craft nights, interested participants may contact the library at 315-369-6008 or by email at oldforge@midyork.org.
