This community events calendar is the place to find fun activities and things to do throughout Lewis County, including Centralia, Chehalis and beyond.
Putting up the bountiful harvest for a long winter. Activities and discussion of how to put up and store foods in the mid-19th century. Panel of our Living Historians. Mary Borst had a lovely, in that day, very modern cook stove. Joseph also built her a state of the art pantry, which kept things cool ~ one of my personal favorites in the house.
We provide the painting for you to bedazzle with mini diamond sequins. If you like precision and sparkles this activity is for you. Space is limited so please register online or call 360.748.3301 starting August 3rd. All supplies provided. For ages 11+. This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Chehalis Timberland Library.
This event is part of the Summer Library Program, a Timberland Regional Library district-wide program.
Join in a spirited book discussion of a selected title each month. New participants are always welcome! The September book is: “The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency” by Alexander McCall-Smith. Copies are available at the Information Desk one month before the discussion.
Join storyteller and Quinault Tribal Ambassador Harvest Moon to hear tales from the Northwest Coast Indian tradition. This program is part of Timberland Reads Together, featuring “There There” by Tommy Orange and Native Voices, focused on Indigenous Peoples history and culture.
Composting is a little like baking a cake. There are some basic science principles required to successfully create compost in the shortest possible time but the rest is art, allowing you to create a composting setup that works for you. The WSU/Lewis County Master Recycler Composter volunteers invite you to attend a basic composting class. There will be an opportunity to ask questions about your own composting challenges as well. Participants who call (360)740-1216 and pre-register by 5 p.m. Sept. 9, will have a free compost bin reserved for them. (One bin per family please.)
