Make your own sustainable cleaners
May 16th at 10 AM at the Library
How many different cleaning products are under YOUR kitchen sink? If you believe the ads, you need dozens of specialized products for all the different surfaces in your home, and many of them contain harsh chemicals. Join Mirjam and Alissa as we use basic, non-toxic household products like vinegar and baking soda to make safe, simple, non-toxic, less expensive cleaners that are just as effective at getting the job done. Share your recipes and feedback. We will be experimenting with different recipes for different jobs.
Nature Illustration Workshop
May 23rd at 10 AM at the Library

Book Club: Remarkably Bright Creatures
May 28th at 7pm at the Library
Come join us for a discussion of this "feel-good but deceptively sensitive debut." After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which she’s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago. Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn’t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors—until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova.
Ever the detective, Marcellus deduces what happened the night Tova’s son disappeared. And now Marcellus must use every trick his old invertebrate body can muster to unearth the truth for her before it’s too late.
