William F. Laman Public Library

The Loft - Teen Center

Write what you are grateful for on individual strips of paper, then add to our collective chain, which will be on display in the Loft.

What are you thankful for?

Expressing gratitude is a beneficial mental health practice, and it's powerful when we can share our gratefulness with others. 

Teens can add to our gratitude chain in the Loft by writing down people, places, or things they are thankful for onto strips of colorful paper. We will add to the chain the rest of the year and have it on display. 

All supplies are provided for this passive program. 

For more information, contact Jenna at jjones@nlrlibrary.org.
