20s and 30s programs at the library
01.12.23
Many of you may have attended our programs for people in their 20s and 30s before.
We just want to spread the word again!
Whether you’re looking to just destress, meet other 20 & 30 somethings in town, or want to try something different (for free) with your friend group, DPPL has fun, creative, and relaxed programs for people in their 20s and 30s, give or take.
We are flexible with the age range, just know these are geared toward this demographic.
If this is you, you are and have always been welcome to all the other programming for adults.
