Houseplant Propagation Workshop

Join us for a fun and hands-on Houseplant Propagation Workshop at the Friends of Myrtle Creek Library from 2 - 4 pm. Whether you're a seasoned plant parent or just starting your green journey, this event is perfect for all plant enthusiasts.

During this in-person workshop, you'll learn various techniques to multiply your houseplant collection. Our knowledgeable instructors will guide you through the process of propagating different types of houseplants, including stem cuttings, leaf cuttings, and division.

Discover the secrets of successful propagation and gain confidence in creating new plant babies. You'll leave with the skills and knowledge to grow your own thriving indoor garden, and also take home THREE plants to get you started!

Tickets $10, available at Eventbrite.

Zine Collective

The Friends of Myrtle Creek Library is starting a Zine Collective!

A zine (pronounced “zeen”) can be as simple as a single folded sheet of paper with drawings and/or text in each panel, or as complicated as a full-size booklet. You can use anything as a topic; poetry you’ve written, a series of collages, a guide on how to make a family recipe–the options are endless.

All zine creators are invited to display their creations at the Myrtle Creek Library, where we will make them available for everyone to look at and appreciate. This is a wonderful chance to express yourself, as well as share your creative talents and interests with the community. There is no deadline, so feel free to bring more of your work in the future!

To submit, bring your zine(s) to the library and ask for help at the circulation desk.

Below are a few inspiration examples from the web, but feel free to make your zines any way you like!
