Community Connections

Have you ever considered how your interests and skills could inspire others?

Do you knit or sew? Are you an artist or musician? Do you know how to repair bicycles or use an electric drill?

Would you be willing to show a group of us how to start seeds, or teach us how to make sourdough bread?

Would you consider leading a writers workshop or a drum circle at the library? Are you a historian, a globetrotter, or a naturalist? Together we could organize an evening for you to do a presentation! The possibilities are endless!

Please, let us know if you are willing to inspire, entertain, or teach our community at the Wayland Free Library!

Here at Wayland Free Library we believe in the free access to information, news, books, and services. We believe the Library should be a safe place for everyone! It is our goal to remind our community of the access your library card provides you, beyond the book rental services.
