MARYVILLE, Mo. — More than 200 people stopped by last month’s third annual Craft Swap at the Maryville Public Library and received a free bag of craft supplies.

According to an email from Annie Arvidson, adult programs assistant, the craft supplies had been donated by 83 members of the community. Lacy Miller won the Cuttlebug Basket and Vincent Fann won the Sewing Machine Basket.

“We hope that everyone who came found something that sparked your creativity, and wish you luck with your projects,” Arvidson wrote.

This month’s program will be “The Basics of Photography & Composition.” The library’s guest speaker will be Adam Bochart, a mass media instructor at Northwest Missouri State University.

This presentation will be beneficial to any adult interested in photography, regardless of skill or equipment, as Bochart believes that “the best camera is the one you have on-hand.”

The program will be held at 6 p.m. on Thursday, April 18, in the library adult section. Refreshments will be provided.

Twenty spots are available. Registration is required for free at the library front desk or by calling 660-582-5281.
