National Youth Week 2012 at Mosman Library

This year to celebrate National Youth Week, and to have fun in the school holidays, we had all sorts of fun activities in the Library.

To kick off the celebrations, we played a fantastic Dungeons and Dragons zombie adventure! Beset by a horde of the undead, our teens played anti-heroes who have to fight the ravenous zombie invasion as well as dealing with a case of mistaken identity from some ignorant goodie-two-shoe adventurers who happen upon the fray.

Followed by a Steampunk Jewellery workshop where we created clockwork-inspired masterpieces out of beads, wire, cogs, gears and watch parts. See the slide show below to have a look at some of our wonderful creations.

If either of these activities look like fun, then keep an eye on the Mosman Library Teens event page for more awesome activities.

If you’re interested in participating in a regular Dungeons and Dragons game at the Library then fill out the following form:

Manga Appreciation Society Update

Tuesday 15 November saw another Manga Appreciation Society come and go.

This month, after spending the last few months with Mai Tokiha in My Hime, we returned out attentions to the life of Tohru Honda and the Sohma family in Fruits Basket.

After watching a few episodes, we tried our hands at papercrafts.
