Parsippany Library

Last month’s Social Hour hit all the right notes with a fun-filled karaoke theme!🎤✨

Adults with cognitive or developmental disabilities, along with their caregivers and support staff, came together for a morning of music, laughter, and community. From favorite songs to cheering each other on, it was wonderful to see everyone having fun, building friendships, and expressing themselves in such a welcoming space.💙

Our Social Hour takes place every 4th Friday of the month from 11:00 am–12:00 pm, with a different themed activity each time. We can’t wait to sing along again soon!

Last month's 'Tap Into Calm' session was such a wonderful experience!✨🧘‍♀️

We explored EFT Tapping for gentle stress release and then delved into the power of hypnosis for focused relaxation and mental clarity. It was great seeing everyone practice these practical tools Gulnaz Saeed shared for feeling calmer and more centered.

Big thank you to Gulnaz for donating your time and bringing such meaningful wellness initiatives to our community! And thanks to everyone who joined us for this calming workshop. We hope you're feeling more resilient!💙

Creativity, connection, and a little quiet time to write.✍️💙

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our recent Writing Circle! Participants spent the evening slowing down, reflecting, and making space for creativity in a warm and supportive environment. From quiet writing time to thoughtful conversation and optional sharing, it was a wonderful reminder that writing doesn’t have to be done alone.

Our next Writing Circle will take place on Wednesday, June 10 from 6:30–8:00 PM. Come as you are, write what you like, and stay as long as you can.✨

A look back at a musical morning at the Parsippany Library!🎶✨

Families joined us for a fun-filled mini concert earlier this month with Lakeland Youth Symphony. They introduced little ones to the magic of music through lively performances, hands-on discovery, and plenty of smiles. After the concert, children explored our interactive “instrument petting zoo,” where they got to see, touch, and even try playing a variety of instruments themselves!🎻🥁🎺

Thank you to everyone who came out and made this musical morning so special. We loved seeing so many young musicians-in-the-making!
