Join us at the library for a cooking program that teaches kitchen skills, nutrition, and sustainability through interactive lessons and tasty food while promoting healthy eating and food science.

Teen Chef Academy is an interactive, hands-on cooking program designed to engage teens through learning essential skills in the kitchen while fostering an understanding of nutrition, sustainability, and food science. Using a mobile cart equipped with all the tools necessary for cooking, teens can learn about the benefits and joys of cooking while connecting with their peers.  The curriculum covers a variety of topics, from basic knife skills to creating balanced meals, with an emphasis on using fresh, local ingredients. Through practical lessons, teens will gain confidence in the kitchen, learn to appreciate healthy eating habits, and develop a deeper connection to the food they eat. *Due to our limited, perishable supplies, we may only accommodate those who reserve one day in advance of the program.

About the branch

The Hobart Branch is conveniently located at 100 N. Main Street in downtown Hobart. The current building was built in 1967 and an addition was added in 1979 and then remodeled in 2007. The Hobart Branch is known for its unique architecture and fabulous views of Lake George. The interior areas have slight floor elevation differences which help provide a cozy atmosphere.

The Hobart Branch has many amenities for the community. The library has a private small group room, and a public meeting room that can accommodate up to 100 people. Every month we hold many preschool, toddler, infant, and family and adult classes and events. From computer classes, to arts and crafts, to teen gaming, we've got something for everyone, no matter your age!
