Crafting Connections Mandala Seastar – Brainerd Memorial Library 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. A mandala is a complex abstract design that is usually circular in form. In fact, “mandala” is a Sanskrit word that means “circle”. Mandalas generally have one identifiable center point, from which emanates an array of symbols, shapes and forms.
In this class, we will be using art canvases, acrylic paints, and mandala dotting tools to create a sea star shape. Space is limited to 24. This is a program geared towards adults. We will accept participants age 16 and above.

Night Boat to New York with Erik Hesselberg – Brainerd Memorial Library. Local author Erik Hesselberg will discuss his new book Night Boat to New York: Steamboats on the Connecticut, 1824-1931, a meticulously researched account of steamboat days on the Connecticut River, and their circuit from Hartford to New York City. Unlike the steamboats of Western waters, these vessels “were long, sleek craft, with sharp prows cutting a neat wake” as they traveled down the river at night to make port in New York by daybreak.
