New Year's Time Capsule

Kick off the new year with your very own personal time capsule - send a message to your future self full of all the hopes and dreams you’ve got for 2025!

It's a new year - but don't chuck out all the old just yet! Instead, drop it in a time capsule for your future self to look back on at year's end.

In the Loft, we'll be making our own personalized time capsules to capture who we are now, our hopes and dreams for 2025, and to manifest some change. Bring anything you'd like to pop in your time capsule, including photos, poems, notes, stickers of your favorite things, and more! We'll each fold and decorate our own capsules before filling them up and sealing them shut until December 31, 2025.

Send a bit of love to your future self, and a wish to the new year, and join us in the Loft for this fun program. Ages 13-18. 
If you have any questions, reach out to bsmith@nlrlibrary.org
