Winona Public Library Patron Programs

By TJ Jun 19, 2022 | 11:51 AM

Chromebooks Available for In-House Use at the Winona Public Library

The Winona Public Library introduces a new service to the building – Chromebooks!  A Chromebook looks and feels like a laptop computer but is smaller and uses Google Technology.

The devices are available for in-house use only and anyone 16 years old or older with a Winona Public Library card in good standing may borrow one.  To use a Chromebook, visit the Youth or Reference Departments.  To learn more about the devices, go to winona.lib.mn.us or call the Library at (507) 452-4582.

 

 

Carving Your Clan:  A Native Skywatchers Carving Workshop

On Friday, June 24th from 1-4PM, the Winona Public Library will host artist Jeffrey Tibbets for a  workshop where participants will carve a physical representation from a natural material.  During the program, attendees will develop an understanding of aspects of the Ojibwe worldview represented in artistic form through the natural elements of the cosmos.

Registration is required for this event. To register, go to winona.lib.mn.us  or call the Library’s Reference Desk at (507) 452-48560.

This program is free, open to the public, and brought to you in part or in whole by a SELCO and Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Grant.
