Junk Journaling for Grown-ups

Junk Journaling is just what it sounds like. It’s making a record by gathering the “junk” that makes up our day-to-day life. You are invited to start or continue a journal by attending our program at Sturm Memorial Library in Manawa on September 17, 2025 between 3 and 5 pm. Register to attend by calling 920-596-2252 or visiting the circulation desk during library hours.
If you have time to prepare, bring along items such as receipts; snack wrappers; old maps or postcards; the button that fell off your shirt; your artwork or sketches; doodles; or lists. Old magazines or catalogs are a good resource for photos or images to pair up with junk. Is your junk too junky? Probably not! However, it is fine to make a dream or inspirational journal instead of documenting your life.
The library will provide spiral ring notebooks; glue; double-sided tape; pens; pencils; old books; paper; pockets; and other junk embellishments. Scrapbookers are welcome to attend but should be aware that others will not be using the same level of precision.
