Teen Events

While the library is closed, join our Teen Advisory Board online!  We will meet over Zoom to discuss library services for teens during the stay-at-home order, as well as socializing and doing fun activities like trivia games and digital escape rooms.

Open to teens ages 12-18 or entering grades 7-12. New members always welcome! You will need a free Zoom account and internet connection. For more information or to sign up for TAB, email our Young Adult librarian at johnd@galesburglibrary.org.

Instructions to join the Zoom call will be posted here on the day of the meeting.

Tai Chi is a Chinese art and exercise form that can help improve balance and joint mobility and maybe even help stave off dementia.  Xiaoqi Wu of Eastern Therapeutic has been teaching Tai Chi in Galesburg for 14 years.

In August, the instructor will teach a four-week beginner class that covers all 24 forms of a set Tai Chi routine.

All sessions will take place on Tuesdays at 9 am at the Galesburg Public Library. We may meet indoors or we may meet outdoors. Masks must be worn at all times inside the library. Masks must be worn outdoors as well when a distance of six feet cannot be observed. 

Thank you to the Galesburg Community Foundation for sponsoring this program.

We are also taking orders for Tai Chi t-shirts. $10 for sizes up to XL.
