 We want to create a Community Art Project and need your help! Stop in to pick up a puzzle piece to make into your own piece of art. Paint (acrylic, oil, watercolor...), collage, use mixed media, 2D, 3D, or whatever you'd like on your piece. When we have them all collected, we will mount them and display our Community Art in the library for all to see. Pieces due back by February 1.

Did you ever wonder who lives in that big mansion on up the lane? Well…. We have some ideas on who or what lives up there. Can you help us out in figuring out who lives up in the big mansion? Clues will be scattered throughout the digital escape room. There is no actual time limit – but be warned that if we don’t find out soon something bad may happen to our village. Are you ready?

Those of us at the library LOVE a good scavenger hunt. However, since it's beautiful outside, we want to mix it up.
We challenge YOU to explore Algoma! On the morning of September 25th, we will release a survey on our website with very specific questions about locations around our lovely town of Algoma. We will also have physical copies at the library for those that don't have the internet. The challenge is that you need to go to those locations to find the answers.
Participants that complete the survey before midnight on the 27th will be able to pick up a participation prize on the following Monday.
(Instead of digital scavenger hunt, date has been extended to allow for bad weather.)
