Community Calendar

Intended for young children ages birth to three years and their parents or caregivers, this program focuses on early language and social skills through fun stories, songs, and play time.

Tech time is available at the Kenai Community Library for anyone with basic technology questions. We can help you with:

• Digital photos

*We do not take apart or repair devices, assist with financial transactions, or handle malware/viruses. While we will do our best to assist you with your technology needs, these are offered to allow you to expand your skills, not as a replacement for commercial tech support. Appointments required.

This fun and flavorful gathering is for those who love cooking, exploring new recipes, and sharing good food. Each session, we select a cookbook, and you choose a recipe to prepare and bring to our potluck-style meetup.

Here's how it works: The featured cookbook will be available at the front desk for browsing. Pick a recipe that sparks your interest, and we'll provide a photocopy for you to take home. Then, whip up your chosen dish and bring it to share with the group. We'll take care of serving utensils, drinks, and place settings--just bring your dish, your appetite, and a love for great food!

For this session, we will be selecting recipes from Open Wide: A Cookbook for Friends by Benny Blanco and Jess Damuck.

Registration is required. This is an adult program--Please leave the young'uns at home.
