Aldine Branch Library

Check it Out! [1]

Submitted by Clara Maynard [2] on Sat, 05/18/2013 - 1:39pm

In celebration of Keith Haring's birthday Aldine had a teen program  to talk about street art. We discussed the  form, style, legality, and morality of graffiti, with a focus on Houston based artists. After the presentation the youth created stickers, and stencils, andcopy of teen's artwork drew on butcher paper. Their art work is on display in the library, and also pictured here.

A.P.E. Volunteers & the Art Car Parade 2013 [8]

Submitted by Mark H. [9] on Thu, 05/16/2013 - 1:33pm

May 11th was Houston's 26th annual art car parade and the Aldine Project Experience (APE) teens were part of the festivities. Our teen volunteers worked for weeks to create their own book cart. They also cut out many cardboard cars and trucks for children to decorate. On the day of the parade they set up the library's spot in the "Kid's Zone," asked kids to join in the craft, and helped them create their own little art cars. The craft was so popular that we ran out of cars before the parade even started. It was a great event and the teens were thrilled to be part of it.

Our newest Young Adult book display features a number of our urban fiction titles. If you enjoy Bluford High you'll love these titles!

Our printers aren't working! [19]

Submitted by Clara Maynard [2] on Mon, 05/13/2013 - 4:47pm

The good news is that we have new computers! The bad news is that our new computers don't know how to send print jobs to our printing system. So while our Network Services figure it out, you'll be unable to print here at the Aldine Library. We'll be glad to direct you to one of our other branches. Thank you for your patience!
