Visit the Wallaceburg and Dresden branches this September to learn something new in 20 minutes or less.

CKPL’s How-To Festival is part of Outside the Lines, a global initiative designed to reintroduce libraries to their local communities.

All of CKPL’s 11 branches are offering fun and informative “how-to” sessions throughout the week of September 12 to 17.

Outside the Lines is a global initiative that gets libraries “walking the walk” – taking action to show communities how important libraries are and how they’ve changed. This weeklong international celebration takes place September 11 to 17, 2016.

Learn more at getoutsidethelines.org.
