Craft & Chat
Library Program Volunteer - Craft & Chat
PAE Libraries offer a range of programs and activities which promote lifelong learning and provide a safe environment and opportunities for community members to learn new skills and connect with others through creative activities.
The Libraries Community Learning team is currently recruiting new volunteers to assist in facilitating and expanding the popular Craft & Chat program. We are looking for volunteers with a passion for creativity and bringing people together through social interaction. Craft & Chat volunteers are not expected to be experts, however a personal interest in art & craft in any medium is highly desirable.
