Intended to create a social outlet for those who find themselves enthralled by the likes of Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, the Fangirls Fan Club for Teens is a new initiative started by Noelle Kozak.
Meeting on the third Thursday of every month at the Pittston Memorial Library, the Fangirls Fan Club for Teens gives young girls and boys an outlet to talk about their favorite media. Projects have included cutting out portions from discarded books to create fashion accessories and even creating stories using content members found on Tumblr.
As young consumers find themselves spending more time online than ever, the Fangirls Fan Club for Teens is an example of a social gathering to help encourage healthy pastimes.
