Beat the winter blues with intentional happiness: music, joyful arts and crafts, peaceful meditative drawing, and tasty treats. Join us at the DeKalb Public Library for the first of our Hygge (HOO-ga) of the new year! Leave with some library books which inspire joy and relaxation.

January’s Hygge will focus on self-care and comfort. Sessions will be held on Saturday, January 11, from 2:00 – 4:00 p.m., and on Wednesday, January 29, from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.

“In Denmark, winters are especially long, yet Danish people are considered some of the happiest in the world. They embrace the dark winter months with the joyful practice of Hygge (pronounced HOO-ga) meaning coziness, candlelight, nature, and meeting with friends.” – Emma Mitchell from Making Winter: a Hygge-inspired Guide to Surviving the Winter Months.

This program is intended for adults. No registration is required. It will be held in the Nancy D. Castle Collaboration Studio.
