Be ready to share your own purchasing priorities, concerns and successes in an open, constructive dialogue.

All welcome.
Big Conversations in 10 Short Minutes

NEW DATE!
Tuesday, March 10, 7 pm
virtual via Zoom
​
Big Conversations in 10 Short Minutes is a virtual meetup in the Mad River Valley hosted by the MRV Libraries. There is no agenda other than to meet and enjoy brief conversations with others in the community.
Here's how it works: We'll give you a couple of conversation prompts. One is simple. One leans more toward the philosophical. You'll be paired with someone to have a short, 10-minute conversation about the prompt of your choice. When you're done, you'll be paired with someone else for a new conversation with new prompts. The prompts are simple. The conversations are non-political. We like to think of it as a little pocket of meaning at the end of a long day.

Saturday, March 21
10-2
Warren Public Library
​
In our busy lives, making time to weave can be a challenge. Projects that can be woven in short periods of time will be explored and demonstrated. Using a simple frame loom and other “unique weaving frames” you will create a piece which expresses a thought, memory, idea or inspiration. Basic tapestry and weaving techniques and how to use them to express your ideas will be taught by instructor Susan Snider.
​
Refreshments will be served and you may bring a bag lunch.

Spaces are limited. Register here.
