WEEKEND: Clallam Bay Library celebrates Valentine’s Day early today with full slate of events

NOTE: “Today” and “tonight” refer to Friday, Feb. 12.

CLALLAM BAY — The Clallam Bay Library will celebrate Valentine’s Day a little early, with events planned all day today.

From 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., the library at 16990 state Highway 112 will host its ninth annual Valentine Card-Making Extravaganza, a drop-in event that is free and open to all ages.

Attendees are encouraged to bring their imaginations and make a handcrafted valentine for someone special.

The library will supply the paper, glitter, stickers, feathers and glue.

That will be followed by the library’s fourth annual After Hours @ the Library Valentine fundraiser from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Admission is a suggested donation of $5 per person.

Comedian and magician Jeff Evans will perform.

Guests also can discover new reading material by going on a “blind date with a book,” take keepsake snapshots with a friend or sweetheart inside the photo booth and try their luck at a Chinese auction featuring donations from area merchants.

Proceeds will support youth programs at the North Olympic Library System — which oversees public libraries in Clallam Bay, Forks, Port Angeles and Sequim.

The Clallam Bay Friends of the Library also will provide refreshments and other treats.

For more information, phone 360-963-2414, email ClallamBay@nols.org or visit www.nols.org.
