Create Digital Media Without Spending A Dime

Don't let the cost prohibitive nature of the digital arts stop you from creating--come to the library!  We just set up a brand new digital media station to provide free access to digital production.  Learn about Photoshop, Illustrator, iMovie, and more. Drop-in between 6 - 8pm on any Wednesday in October to learn more and get oriented.
