The first Wyckoff Library Teen Coffee House, 23 August 2011!
Friday, August 12, 2011
Well, our fingers may be tired from folding and creasing, but Wyckoff's budding teen origamists acquited themselves quite well indeed yesterday evening, thanks to the most effective teaching by our favorite Master Origamist, Linda Bogan.
All of us have great origami pieces to treasure, including a lovely picture frame, an adorable dog, tulips in a basket with a handle and, last but not least, a cleverly fashioned paper top that spins like the dickens.
If you weren't there, you missed some great fun, accompanied by a fine sense of accomplishment. Of course, there is ever the chance we will invite Ms. Bogan back, at the very latest next summer.

PS: No, we did not make paper cranes. . .maybe next time?!?
PPS: Yes, watch this space for pics from the program itself. . .Wyckoff teens in action, again!

Ah, summer comes to its enexorable finis.
Tomorrow evening marks our final TALK IT UP/SPEAK OUT book discussions.
Thursday we will be engaging in the ancient Japanese art of Origami.
Next Tuesday we will 'kick out the jams' at a TEEN COFFEE HOUSE,
or you can just think of it as an 'end of Summer Programs party.'
(That works, too.)

YouthStage, interactive theater, today's teen program . . .
What can I say? You guys are born actors, or at least those of you who attended.
It was fantastic, with Wyckoff teens once again proving their mettle, and this time on the stage. Okay, it wasn't a real stage, just the Library Program Room, but believe me when I say it was some pretty great theatrics happening at the library.
You teens perpetually astound me with your abilities. More, more, gimme more.
Bravo!
PS: Look for pics on this space, and very soon.
