Community members at a library craft and social session

What to Expect

Antrim Library runs a full weekly calendar of free community activities as part of the Libraries NI programme, all open to library members at no charge. The best-known social session is Knit and Natter, a relaxed craft and conversation group that meets every Friday from 2pm to 3.30pm - bring your own project or come along for the company. The same week also brings Tea and Newspapers on Thursday mornings (10am to 11am), a chatty session for older adults over a cuppa and the day’s papers, plus an Adult Board Games Club on Friday mornings and a Tabletop Games Club on Saturdays. Wednesday afternoons host Mindful Colouring and the Antrim Activity Afternoon. Membership of Libraries NI is free and also unlocks free e-books and audiobooks.
