Take a step back before all the holiday chaos begins with a calming Danish style “Hygge” evening of warm and cozy activities at the Burnette Branch Library.

Stop by and enjoy the library’s “fireplace”, candle light, board games, hot cocoa and tea, and great conversations. Feel free to bring your own throw blanket or any handicraft projects you are currently working on and anyone who knows how to sew can use library supplies to hand sew a DIY handwarmer or two.

Registration is required; please register online with our events website or call 586-353-0579. This events will be held in the Burnette Library’s Community Meeting Room.
