Teens

Do you love to write?  Need some friendly support and feedback?  Join us in this collaborative, creative writing group every Monday at 10:15am!

A beloved LHT Library patron, Elaine Shaub, loved to write.  She would come to the library to free her mind and write her stream of consciousness.  Sadly, Elaine passed away in April of 2024 and, in her memory, the LHT Library invites community residents to be part of the newly re-formed Elaine’s Peacock Writers Group.  Inspiration, guidance, support and gentle critiques will be offered at the monthly meetings.  Experience is not necessary, only the desire to put pen to paper and write.  Tools required: pen and paper, tablet or laptop — whatever helps the writing process.  All are welcome — what is shared in the group, stays in the group!

Each meeting,  a “Writing Prompt” will be provided to assist in the creative writing process and help direct the group discussions. In addition, every meeting will begin with a brief discussion on writing craft, creativity, writing preparation and time management.

This is a writing forum where everyone will be asked to write-out or simply jot-down their ideas and read them to the group. We welcome feedback and the writing trainer will provide light, constructive criticism. Please note that this is an adult forum, so adult language is tolerated within the context of the writing pieces.

Newcomers are always welcome!

Heartfulness meditation is a simple yet profound practice that helps individuals achieve a deeper sense of relaxation, inner calm, and emotional balance. By focusing on the heart, this practice encourages self-awareness, and a connection to one’s inner self. It offers a practical approach to managing stress, reducing anxiety, and cultivating better sleep habits.

Walk-ins are welcome!

Join us for the beautiful music of Ana Maria Rosado, a guitarist who has performed contemporary and Latin American music around the world. Formerly a professor of music at New Jersey City University, she has released two solo CDs, We’ve Got (Poly)Rhythm, and Salsa and Other Beats and we are so happy to have her return to the LHT Library.   Come relax and listen!

We are happy to have Ana Maria return to perform at the LHT Library as part of a concert series sponsored by the Friends of the Library.
