Using old magazine clippings, teens can experiment with the visual aspects of poetry.
Think all poetry has to rhyme or sound like Shakespeare? Think again. Join us for a hands-on session where we turn magazine clippings into creative, chaotic, and totally original poetry. Whether you're a wordsmith or just love a little organized mess, this is your chance to cut, paste, and express yourself, no experience required. Supplies will be provided while they last. This is a drop-in event, so show up when you can. Clean up begins 30 minutes before the program ends.
For teens ages 12-17, located in the Best Buy Teen Tech Center on the main floor.
Teens may be asked to show I.D.

Originally opening in 1966 as a three-room library within the Airport Annex building, the Clark County Library moved in 1967 to a storefront. In 1971, the library moved again to its current location using deeded land from the County and with money awarded by the Max C. Fleishman Foundation. The building went on to have two remodels: one completed in 1986, and the second completed in 1994, which resulted in the three-story, 120,000-square-foot building it is today. This redesign notably included a 399-seat theater and an 80-seat black box theater/dance studio. The Library District also added the Best Buy Teen Tech Center, which provides a place for teens to explore and master new technologies and digital skills.
