Set aside a whole hour to DO THE WORK of creative writing, journaling, or art. Grab an hourglass and a faux candle and be surrounded by the beauty of nature - all to help your creative mind flourish!
Come enjoy our beautiful library and make time for yourself to write alongside other creative minds. The hardest part of being creative is finding the time to sit down and DO THE WORK. Give yourself the gift of dedicating an entire hour to sit down and write (or draw or sketch or paint - whatever needs doing!). You can get comfy by the fireplace with your laptop or a journal, or settle in at one of our (limited) computer spaces.
We have fancy hourglasses so you can time yourself without using your phone, and faux candles to help set the mood, as well as 3D printed writing buddies you can borrow for luck. If you're anxious about what to write, don't worry! We have prompts available that are designed to get you writing, whether you want to write creatively or journal for self-care.
This event is free and open to the public. Seating is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Buried in snow in the winter and cool during the hot days of summer, the Mount Charleston Library is located in Old Town, about 40 miles north of Las Vegas at an elevation of 7,200-feet. Opened in March 1987, the 2,800-square-foot facility houses 5,500 volumes and serves the beautiful community that surrounds it.
