We have a large variety of recurring spring programs beginning in January, as well as special programs throughout the season!

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, most programs will require registration and will have a limited number of spots available. Programmers do reserve the right to cancel any programs or change them to virtual as they see fit. To register for any of the following programs, visit our website. Some youth programs will allow one registration for the entire recurring series. Those programs will have a question in the registration form asking if you would like to register for multiple occurrences of that program.

The Benton branch will also begin accepting appointments for Makerspace Open Hours. These open hours will be on Tuesdays from 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM, Thursdays from 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM, and the second Saturday of the month from 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM. You can request a one-hour time slot to tinker in the Makerspace by visiting the Makerspace section of the website.
