WHACL

When looking for something different to do this winter, just look to your local library. White Haven Area Community Library volunteers have been busy putting together a variety of fun activities for you to enjoy.

This Saturday, February 11, from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. former White Haven resident Christopher Vernon returns to his home town for a book signing at The White Haven Area Community Library. Vernon is the author of Dancing in a Hurricane and Love Letter to my Younger Self. He was voted Best Literary Writer by The Times Leader Media Group in 2021. He will be joined by local children’s author Kelly Billig of Beaver Meadows, whose first book entitled Our Busy Day is a celebration of kindness. Books will be available to purchase the day of the event.

For those looking to learn a new skill this winter, why not try sewing? Two-hour workshops will be held at the library on Saturday, Feb. 18 (9 – 11 a.m., 11:30 – 1:30 p.m., 2 – 4 p.m.) and Tuesday, Feb. 21 (4-6 p.m., 6:30-8:30 p.m.). The cost is $65. To register call Erin at

All fees will be donated to the United Ukrainian Relief Committee (UUARC.org ) . Check The Library Corner each week to see what other exciting things are happening at your local library.

As a reminder, the WHACL board will meet Tuesday, Feb. 14 at 6:30 p.m. in the John Murphy Room. The public is welcome to attend.
