SUMMARY:Knife Sharpening with Dennis Snedden: Whetstone Tips\, Tools\, & Techniques
DESCRIPTION:Look sharp – it’s a hands-on workshop on sharpening and caring for your knives! A well-sharpened edge is much safer and more effective than a dull one\, and with a little guidance\, anyone can learn to keep their knife edges in excellent condition. Experienced sharpener Dennis Snedden will teach participants how to keep their own knives sharp and ready to use. \n\n\n\nEach participant should bring two or three 5″-10″ kitchen knives (non-serrated); a diamond\, oil\, or water stone (if you have one); a honing rod or steel (if you have one); your knife edge questions; and a will to learn! You will learn the best and safest techniques for honing a fine edge. Come with dull knives – leave with safer\, sharper\, functional edges! \n\n\n\nNo ceramic knives\, hair or sewing scissors\, please. \n\n\n\nA suggested donation of $15 will be put towards funding the 2026 kids’ Summer Reading Program. Space is limited\, so please click here to register! 18 years and older\, please.

SUMMARY:The Congruent Self: Community Starts With You\, Part 2
DESCRIPTION:Join licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Candice Coughenour for this two-part workshop series that explores the concept of congruency: the alignment between your thoughts\, feelings\, and actions\, and how it shapes your relationship with yourself and others. \n\n\n\nDesigned as a reflective and supportive space\, this series invites you to explore and reflect on your relationship to yourself and others as you move toward greater clarity\, honesty\, and alignment in your everyday life. You’ll receive a guided workbook\, take-home reflections\, and a resource list to support continued growth beyond this workshop. \n\n\n\n\nIn Part 1 (Wednesday\, June 3)\, we will focus on building awareness of your inner world and identifying where you may feel out of sync.\n\n\n\nIn Part 2 (Wednesday\, June 17)\, we will expand that awareness into relationships\, practicing ways to communicate and connect more authentically.\n\n\n\n\nBecause space is limited\, registration is required. Please register for each of the two sessions separately. Ages 18+ only\, please. Click here to register for Part 1\, and click here to register for Part 2. \n\n\n\nDisclaimer: This workshop is designed for learning and self-reflection and is not therapy. While we’ll explore concepts related to personal growth and relationships\, this is not a space for individualized mental health treatment or support. If you need deeper or ongoing support\, working with a licensed therapist is recommended.
