Messy Paint Day (July 17)

Rodman Public Library is giving area youth, ages 10 to 18, the opportunity to express themselves artistically in July with a Messy Paint Day.

From 3 to 5 p.m. on Thursday, July 17, participants can gather outside the Main Library for the event in which they will use a variety of tools and instruments, such as squirt guns, to splatter paint on canvas to create a modern art masterpiece.

Youth will also have the opportunity to tie-dye a shirt during a portion of the program, using a method that utilizes colored permanent markers and rubbing alcohol to create designs. Those wishing to do so should bring their own white cotton shirt.

Those participating should wear old clothes and be prepared to get messy during the outdoor event.

Rain date is Thursday, July 24.

Registration is not required to participate in the event.

For more information, call Rodman Public Library at 330-821-2665, ext. 217.

Tabletop Gaming (August 5)

Tabletop Gaming will be held at the Main Library at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, August 5.

Each month, a new game will be featured so that patrons can learn a new game. Of course, other games available in the library’s collection will also be available and visitors are always welcome to bring their own games.

The free monthly event is usually held on the first Tuesday of each month, but is being held a week later in May due to the primary election.

The aim of the family program is to give area residents an opportunity to gather with others to play their favorite card and board games and make new friends.

Light snacks will be offered and no registration is required to attend the monthly program.

Although the program is open to players of all ages, children under 13 should be accompanied by an adult.
