Bridgton Public Library

Online Workshops in February

While we cannot offer in-person workshops here, we have gathered together some online resources for you to help you get inspired, get involved, learn something new, and part of a different kind of community.

The UMaine Cooperative Extension has an awesome lineup of online workshops, with a suggested donation of $5 per session. Can’t make a donation? That’s okay, we’ll make one on your behalf. We will make a donation for any patron who brings in or emails a copy of your program registration.

We have an innovative new membership here at the Library! We have partnered with the Maine Writers & Publishers Alliance to offer online workshops for up to 5 library patrons at member prices. If the member prices are a little more than you can afford, please get in touch with the Library for our scholarship program.

Please remember that Maine 4-H provides hands-on educational and leadership opportunities for nearly 30,000 youth in Maine. They emphasize the importance of building life skills and make it really fun to teach kids some hands-on knowledge. They have free online workshops, including 4-H Tuesday trivia, Passport Around the World SPIN Club, and Public Speaking Workshops, STEM projects, and so much more!

The Portland Museum of Art, Maine State Museum, and Maine Wildlife Park are currently closed, but all have some wonderful online exhibits and virtual tours.

Stay safe and well, and have a great time exploring some online activities.

We do encourage people to use our online catalog to place holds for quick pick up, or give us a call and we can help you by pre-picking some books we think you’d like. We also have some Lists in our online category; find new titles about.
