SUMMARY:Great Canoe Adventure Day! CURRENTLY FULL
DESCRIPTION:Each Adventure Day will be at or near your local library\, giving us a chance to explore your neighbourhood’s ecosystems from the water. The schedule features three “stations”: the canoe tour\, building a birdhouse\, and a wild survival workshop\, along with many team-building games and citizen science activities. During the canoe tour\, we will revisit key concepts like wetlands\, watersheds\, food webs\, biodiversity\, invasive species\, plant and animal identification\, the water cycle\, and the history of  indigenous peoples’ relationship with land and water. We will also collect water samples for testing later. Participants\, both children and adults\, must sign the waiver as part of registration to go in the canoes. Parents are welcome to join us. While on the water\, there’s a target ratio of one adult for every three younger children (aged 5-7). One adult will be present for every five children who are eight years of age or older. Eva Moons\, an outdoor education teacher from Ottawa\, will lead the Wild Survival session. Recent news stories have highlighted frightening situations of kids alone outside. This workshop aims to empower and educate kids on how to cope and solve problems if they find themselves in such situations. It will cover navigation\, map reading\, and other fun skills. To ‘build’ on our bird research\, we will construct wooden birdhouses for common backyard species. This activity involves basic math\, geometry\, carpentry\, and a touch of artistry. To give the canoe guides time to prepare for their final trip\, after our second break\, we’ll hold a physics lesson\, game\, and contest with renowned science teacher Peter Au. We will end the day with water testing of our collected samples\, benthic examining (squirmy things we find in the water)\, and a closing circle.\n\n\n\nReserve a ticket for each participant including parents and please fill out this waiver

SUMMARY:Library After Dark with School House
DESCRIPTION:The Library After Dark fundraising concert series returns to the Perth & District Library with a concert featuring School House! \nThis summer event\, offered in partnership with Stewart Park Festival\, offers a chance for people who love music to see top notch artists in a unique\, alternative space and support the Perth & District Library.  \nSchool House is a folk band from Ottawa. After moving in together in 2021\, the three best friends discovered that their new home was a century-old school house — inspiring the name and giving them a dedicated space to create. They were awarded Group of the Year at the 2024 Ottawa Music Awards and their debut release was named Album of the Year by Ottawa Faces Magazine.\nTheir sound was born around a campfire\, taking turns sharing songs and joining in three-part harmony. They combine upbeat singalongs with emotive folk ballads to bring a wise\, yet youthful perspective to the Canadian folk music scene. Releasing their debut album in 2023 and an Acoustic EP in 2024; the band has amassed over 500k online streams.  \nDoors open at 8:30 pm and music starts at 9:00 pm. You can also enjoy a beverage from the cash bar during the show\, and spend intermission under the lights of the library garden! Thank you to Perth Brewery for the generous donation of beer! \nIn these final hours before the show\, tickets are now $15! Tickets are available for purchase here or at the door.

SUMMARY:Art of Writing workshop: Leaving Room for the Illustrator in Picture Book Writing with Laura Piggott
DESCRIPTION:Almonte Readers & Writers is pleased to present the June series of Art of Writing workshops and courses exploring aspects of creative and technical skills development in literary arts\, offered as part of the 2025 Lanark Lit Festival of Writing. \nAlthough they may seem simple\, picture books are often one of the most complicated genres to write\, as they combine both a written and visual narrative. Where does one end and the other begin? Is one more important than the other? As a picture book writer\, how do you leave room for the illustrator and the story’s visual narrative? In this workshop\, participants will learn how to pare down text when every word counts – and let pictures do some of the talking. Participants will examine current picture book writing techniques\, including the importance of leaving some things unsaid. Participants will also edit and compose their own written excerpts for a picture book audience. A Question and Answer period may follow the hands-on portion of the workshop if there is interest and time. Participants should leave with a better understanding of how both written and visual narratives work in tandem in picture books.\n*Participants are asked to bring a copy of their favourite\, traditionally-published picture book (published within the last 10 years – this can be owned or borrowed from the nearest public library). Participants are also asked to bring a picture book writing sample or manuscript of their own work for an editing exercise. \nAbout the instructor: \nLaura Piggott is an author/illustrator who loves colour\, wonder\, whimsy\, and magic. Her art and writing both embody a sense of humour and play. She believes that all children should see themselves in the stories that surround them.\nWhen she’s not drawing\, painting\, or writing\, Laura spends her time knitting and sewing; playing the piano\, violin\, and cello; reading books and magazines; and drinking copious amounts of coffee. When the coffee runs dry (or it’s past 3:00 pm)\, you might find her dreaming by the fire with a quilt and a cup of hot cocoa or a glass of bubbly wine. Laura also loves to eat\, cook\, and bake gluten-free food and would never turn down a dinner invitation from Phil Rosenthal or Bobby Flay.\nLaura has an Honours BA in Trilingual Translation and a Bachelor of Education\, both from the University of Ottawa. She also has a post-graduate certificate in Stylistic Editing from Queen’s University. She speaks English\, Spanish\, French\, and Italian. Although she is smitten with travel\, she is the epitome of a homebody.\nLaura lives with her husband\, two teenage children\, and menagerie of pets in Carleton Place\, Ontario.\nLaura is represented by Joyce Sweeney and Elisa Houot at the Seymour Agency. More on Laura can be found by visiting www.laurapiggott.com  \nThe 2025 Lanark Lit Festival of Writing is presented by Almonte Readers & Writers thanks to the generous funding support of Lanark County\, the Municipality of Mississippi Mills\, the Perth & District Community Foundation\, and the Elizabeth Kelly Library Foundation\, with community partnership from the Mississippi Mills Public Library\, the Perth & District Public Library\, Mill Street Books\, Almonte Writers Guild\, and with the community support of Equator Coffee\, OVC Almonte\, Jazzy’s Brewhaus and other local partners. \nPre-registration required via Tickets Please  \nEarly-bird rate: $30 (until April 19)\nRegular rate: $40 \nExplore the full calendar of events for the 2025 Lanark Lit Festival of Writing!
