September

Fosston Community Library Arts Center, it’s time to get back to some of the normal activities, many of which have been on hold for the last year and a half. (And we all know why) September brings the return of music lessons at the library, although one of our instructors, Molly Peltier, is planning to offer lessons from her home this year. Molly teaches piano (and maybe flute if you are interested in that). Her cell number is 218-431-0848 and e-mail address is mkcrane@gmail.com. I (Kay Carlsen) will be doing some lessons at the library or on-line if you would prefer that. My phone number is 435-6710; e-mail address is aagekay@gvtel.com. String instructor Jeff Menten will be taking some vacation in September, but will be ready to resume lessons, both in-person and on-line, in October. He teaches violin, viola, cello, mandolin, upright bass, and guitar. Contact him at jeffmentenmusic@hotmail.com or 218-255-0087. If you are interested in lessons for yourself or your child, please contact the instructor directly. Also resuming in September is preschool storytime on Friday, Sept. 10, at 10:30, and afterschool kids club beginning Wednesday, Sept. 8, at 3:30 p.m. On the schedule for the first day of kids’ club will be some fun craft activities. For the adults, the library book club will meet Tuesday, Sept. 14, at 7 p.m. If you are interested, call the library at 435-1320 to request a copy of The Giver of Stars by Jojo Moyes. The Sorenson Gallery will be the site of the FCLAA’s annual juried art show in September. Local and regional artist will exhibit paintings, drawings, metal art and more. The gallery is open during regular library hours. On Tuesday, September 21, author Hudda Ibrahim will be discussing her book, From Somalia to Snow. She is a faculty member at St. Cloud Technical and Community College, where she teaches diversity and social justice. She will discuss why so many Somali immigrants have come to Minnesota and will share about her culture. She is appearing in person at the Detroit Lakes and Moorhead libraries, with the Moorhead presentation being live-streamed on Facebook at 6:30 p.m. Remember that the library will be closed Monday, Sept. 6, in observance of Labor Day.
