MTAC on Hiatus

Due to low attendance, the MLS Teen Anime Club will be on hiatus. Hopefully by this Summer, the club will be back when we reach out to more new Otaku-enthusiasts.

I want to thank all the past and present members for making MTAC an exciting club in the library. For the past THREE years, we've done a lot of fun activities:
-Anime screenings from Operation Anime
-a visit from manga artist Svetlana Chmakova
-Manga Jams and speed drawings
-selected new manga titles to add to the Mississauga Library System
-craft activities like origami, plushies, Tanabata ornaments, paper dolls
-playing Go and learning Japanese from the Golden Key Cultural Centre
-Video games - playing Wii and PS3 on the Noel Ryan Auditorium screen
-hanging out and promoting the club at the annual Missisauga Literacy Festival/Bookfest
-building a haunted house for the Central Library Children's department Halloween program
-2011's Cosplay Picnic at the Celebration Square


Thank you for all the awesome times and hope to see you guys again soon!

Hi, umm, don't know if it's here but since I couldn't find a comment page ... I guess I'll just comment in this post. Sorry for my rambling, but yeah.

Anyways, I just wanted to know when would it be open again 'cause I'm a great anime/manga fan and just moved into Canada and found this page. I was really excited, but all my hopes went crashing down when I read this ... so when would it open again?

I'll try and aim to have the club back in May.
Hopefully we will have a great turn-out in the future meeting, or else....
