Fiber artists, unite! Knitters, crocheters, cross-stitchers, weavers, hookers, tatters and other lap based fiber crafters gather to share skills, chat, teach and learn to a funky beat.
Hang out with your crafty tribe EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT as we spin funk tunes, wind down the week, have interesting conversations AND get a little work done on those UFOs (Unfinished Objects)! If you're a fiber art craft master who never had someone to teach, or a learner who never had someone to learn from, come on down to library town and in an "each one teach one" format, everyone gets what they need! Basic supplies provided for beginning knit and crochet.
Fiber arts don't just keep you warm and look pretty, they can change lives! https://www.cnn.com/2020/12/27/us/man-knitting-group-addiction-trnd/index.html
The Maricopa Library and Cultural Center was first conceived back in 1955, when local citizens discovered Library Extension had books to loan. Volunteer-led for nearly 5 decades, MLCC matured along with the city of Maricopa, opening a state of the art building in 2021. Offerings include material check outs, computer usage, passport services, print/copy services, reference, and programs galore led by a hardworking team of dedicated library professionals. There’s even a USPS-contracted postal unit within the library, making it an easy way to complete life’s errands. Fulfilling a critical need for gathering spaces within the city, nearly half of the MLCC is carved out for meeting rooms for community groups, clubs, and quiet study. There is something for every member of the family at the Maricopa Library and Cultural Center!
