Sylva library to host jewelry workshop

Written by 

Jackson County Library in Sylva begins its new Teen Advisory Group (TAG) from 6-7:30 p.m. Sept. 18 with a special steam punk jewelry and creations workshop.

Teens in grade six through 12 are invited to make suggestions for programs and activities, as well as new books, magazines, movies and audio books. TAG meetings also include socializing, arts and crafts, games and other activities. Many local schools count TAG meeting participation as volunteer time eligible for school credit. Jenifer Ross, a youth services staff member at the library, who makes jewelry and does fine metal work as a hobby, will lead the workshop.
