Article: “Getting Creative at the Library” Type: Article Outlet: Deep Cove Crier Date: February 2016 Link: The Deep Cove Crier is now available online! http://www.nsnews.com/deep-cove-crier/at-your-library-getting-creative-at-parkgate-library-1.2170707 Description: The Library has a regular article in the Deep Cove Crier, a monthly newspaper circulated in the Deep Cove/Seymour area. The newspaper is mainly real-estate focused, with regular articles contributed by the Library, North Vancouver District Mayor Richard Walton, North Vancouver-Seymour MLA Jane Thornthwaite and others. At Your Library “Getting Creative at the Library” By Meghan Crowe What does it mean to be creative? For some, being creative is a much easier process. For those who don’t self-identify with being the “creative type,” it may be harder to tap into the imagination. Well, Parkgate Library and the NVDPL want to help District of North Vancouver residents explore their creative spirit, starting this February. Unlock your creativity at a free 12-week course with Yas Azarpajouh, a Martha Beck Life Coach. The workshop, titled Accessing Your Creative Silent Voice: A Course on Unblocking Creativity, aims to get local residents thinking outside the box. Azarpajouh believes that everyone has a creative silent voice within them: “a voice that over the years has whispered to us to write, paint, sing, play an instrument, take acting lessons, direct a short film, try ice dancing, perform on stage, build something with our hands, or start a business.” She argues that over time, this voice is muted by our fear. Throughout this weekly course, participants are encouraged find their inner creativity and think uninhibitedly. If you enjoy the creative process, but don’t want to delve into it for yourself, then join author and artist Lex Alfred Hedley at Parkgate Library on Feb. 24 for a multimedia presentation of his watercolours and discussion of his books. The NVDPL has a jam-packed event line up this February, and if getting creative is what you’re looking for there’s a lot more to enjoy. Teens can take a Comic Book Making Workshop at Lynn Valley Library with a local graphic designer, children can listen to a Valentine’s Day story and work on a craft with talented author Sara Gillingham at Capilano Library, and there’s even a live musical performance from the North 2 Media Report 2016 Vancouver Community Band at Lynn Valley Library. Not to mention, as an added bonus, Lynn Valley Library will be open on Family Day from noon to 5 p.m., so you can celebrate your family and get creative with your literature choices! Need more info?
