No rules, no agenda. Just crafting, complaining, and chaotic healing in a judgment-free zone.

Paws to Read is a program that makes therapy dogs available for anyone wanting to practice reading with a non-judgmental listener. These therapy dogs are specially trained family pets ready to sit with those who might need extra practice or who just love reading and dogs.
You can register for a 10-15 minute session, and reluctant readers are especially welcome. You don’t have to sign up in advance—you can just drop by anytime between 10-11 am. But if you do sign up, it helps us know you’re coming and gives you first priority for a specific time slot.
Visits occur the 4th Saturday of the Month from 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM
