Coffee & Conversation Senior's Community Grant Programs

Thanks to the Government of Ontario's 2025-26 Senior's Community Grant, the North Bay Public Library is launching our Coffee & Conversation program series. These programs aim to provide North Bay and area seniors with opportunites to learn about different topics including online safety, accessing digital library services, mindfulness techniques, and Wills and power of attorneys. Social activities such as a Sip + Stitch craft night, Bad Art Night, and special editions of Book Bingo are also included to provide more opportunities for socializing.
