Feeling stressed? Lacking an easy-yet-creative outlet in your everyday life? Like colouring and Art Things but just don't have any good pencils at home?

Drop in to the library to enjoy a calming and low-stress activity. We provide all the colouring sheets and materials, you find a seat at the table and let yourself take a moment to focus on colour and creativity.

Whether you bring a friend, listen to your favourite playlist while colouring, or come along to chat with new people there's no wrong way to take part.
