This group will gather once a month to share and learn more about the value of creativity in our daily lives. Over a warm mug of brewed tea/coffee (or ice tea/lemonade in the summer!), come connect with others, share ideas, find inspiration, and practical tips to lead a more creative and whole-hearted approach to life. Each month, in addition to checking in with one another, we will explore different practices (journaling, stitching, collaging, photography) that may pique your creative curiosity.

Each week the group will meet at the front desk of the Glen Arbor Art Center and will move to locations such as Pine Street Studio, the GAAC Classroom, the GAAC grove or Thoreson Farm.

Friends of PCL adult coloring party. Admission with a gift card to Amazon or Michaels in the amount of your choosing to resupply library craft supplies. Materials provided.

In a special Lenten observance rooted in faith, history, and community, Sacred Heart Catholic Church and the Chalfonte Foundation, owner and operator of the historic Elk Rapids Cinema, will present a free, public screening of The Passion of the Christ on Thursday, March 19, 2026.

Doors will open at 6:00 PM, with the film beginning promptly at 7:00 PM. Admission is free and open to the public.

The screening is offered during the season of Lent as an invitation for reflection, prayer, and shared experience, and as a tribute to two men whose lives—though lived in different places—were deeply connected through faith, mentorship, and lifelong devotion to children and community.
