The James V. Brown Library, 19 E. Fourth St., is partnering with the Williamsport Music Club to offer free beginner recorder lessons for older adults.
The classes will be held weekly from April 11 to May 16 and take place from 2 to 3 p.m. in the Lowry Room on the third floor of the Welch Children’s Wing.
Learn something new in your golden years and be part of a fun group. This six-week class meets once a week for beginners, so no experience is necessary. The library will provide the recorders, and there will be light refreshments and some social time.
The lessons will be taught by Lucy Henry, and the class will be open to the first 15 participants. Registration is required and may be made by visiting calendar.jvbrown.edu, https://bit.ly/3MZOkdj or calling 570-326-0536.
This program supports the PA Forward state initiative by providing social and civic literacy opportunities for learning and highlighting the transformative nature of public libraries within a community. Libraries contribute to education, employment, entrepreneurship, engagement and empowerment but are often overlooked as catalysts for powerful individual and community change.
The James V. Brown Library is open for browsing and holds pick up from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday; and 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday. To place a hold, visit www.jvbrown.edu or call 570-326-0536 during the library’s operating hours. The library also is open for public computer usage and for services such as printing, faxing, copying and scanning. Walk-in passport services are available.
