We’re spring cleaning our costumes, props, and classroom supplies, and it’s time to purge! We’ll be opening our office to the community to take items off our hands. Most garments are one-sized or size inclusive. First come, first served. ALL ITEMS FREE. Bring your own bags to carry away your new treasures!
At Only Make Believe, we create interactive theatre with children in hospitals, care facilities, and special education settings. Inspiring joy and imagination, our professional actors engage children with medically fragile conditions and developmental disabilities, fostering social and emotional growth.
Allow yourselves to unwind and create super hero masks, hats, and other kid-friendly giveaways. Everything you create will be used to help children escape into the world of “make believe” during our performances in hospitals, care-facilities, and schools dedicated to serving children with disabilities. No art degree required! Volunteers under 16 years old must be accompanied by an adult. Please RSVP at the link provided.
The Takoma Park Neighborhood Branch Library hosts the “Inklings” New Fantasy Book Club, named in honor of the originator of the genre – J.R.R. Tolkien’s own fantasy book club. We meet in-person to discuss the works of current fantasy authors, with a focus on authors who use the freedom of the fantasy genre to subvert institutional and cultural norms.
Meetings are in-person at the Takoma Park Neighborhood Library in the downstairs meeting room. We meet every second Thursday of the month through the end of 2024 from 6:30pm to 7:30pm.
Audience: Adults (20+)
All materials are available through the DCPL Catalog in a variety of formats.
