Drop-in Mahjongg game (every week when enough players rsvp and library is open).
All levels of experience welcome (beginners given instruction).
We play Asian/Chinese style (easier to learn than American mahjong & no need to purchase annual card).
We have multiple sets of tiles, so can accommodate extra players.
RSVP: text/call [207-572-2414](tel:207-572-2414) to confirm group is meeting on any given date. Or take a chance and drop-in (same time as Library's boardgame event so other games can be played).

Periwinkle Needlepoint is hosting open Stitch Sessions every Thursday from 3-6pm. Any variety of slow stitching is encouraged (such as needlepoint, cross stitch, embroidery, etc).

We're excited to celebrate this holiday season by hosting food & gift evening markets every Thursday December 4th-18th from 4-7pm. We’ve got an incredible lineup of over two dozen vendors for each bazaar; skip the mall and shop small instead, enjoy a local beverage while you browse, and feel good about supporting your neighbors this season. You’ll find everything from gourmet charcuterie to handcrafted pottery, goodies for your furry friends to cozy crochet gear, and so much more!

Fork Food Lab is Maine’s only nonprofit food business incubator and shared manufacturing facility.
