Located in the Topsfield Room on the second floor of the library, the Craft/Project Space has foldable rectangular and round tables that may be configured in order to accommodate different activities. The Space has a wall of shelves that stores a collection of crafting supplies and the craft supply swap.
Please Reserve a Room in order to use the space for crafting. We ask that the room be left as it was found – surfaces cleaned, supplies put away, and tables and chairs returned to their original configuration. Due to staining concerns, we request that paint not be used in the room.
Supply Swap
Visit the room and find free crafting materials! There is yarn, fabric, corks, cardboard, and more available for your next project. Help yourself to the supplies, but if the Topsfield Room is occupied, please come back at a later time.
Donations are welcome! Please bring all craft donations to the Reference Desk.
