Swing by the Jacksonville Public Library on February 12 at 6 p.m. for an evening with Ellie Carlson, where love isn't the only thing in the air—there's a bit of history too. Ellie will take you on a whimsical journey through the roots of St. Valentine himself, and trust us, it's a lot more intriguing than the backstory of that heart-shaped box of chocolates. You'll also get the scoop on what's said to be the world's oldest Valentine. Spoiler alert: it doesn't come with a sweet message from your crush.

But wait, there's more—if you're feeling crafty (or just want to be distracted from your love life for a bit), you can make your very own Valentine with some nifty supplies that Ellie is supplying. No need to stress over RSVPs here; just show up and bring your imagination. It's an event that promises a charming mix of history, creativity, and maybe a sprinkle of romance, all served with a side of fun.
