International Correspondence Writing Month
Letter Writing Station
Friday, February 06
All day
Stop by the Beatley Central Library's writing station to make a card, fill out a postcard, or just jot a short note to a special someone!
International Correspondence Writing Month, or InCoWriMo for short, happens every month in February and celebrates the joy of hand-writing messages by setting the goal of writing a note, card, letter, or postcard to someone every day of the month.
Stop by the Beatley Central Library's writing station any day this month to create your message, then hand-deliver it to the lucky person or send it in the mail!
All ages are welcome to participate, and materials will be provided.
