Make some fun crafts with your family!

Looking for something to do on Saturdays this summer? Beat the heat and stop by the Main Library Saturday, July 12 and Saturday, August 9 to create together with your family! Children must be 5 years old to participate because we will be using a toaster oven and iron to help make our projects. On July 12, we'll make Perler bead animals, and on August 9, we'll make shrink art animal keychains. This program meets from 10:30 - 11:30 am each month. See you there!

For ages 5+ and their families. Registration required separately for each event. Please email Jenny at jdurant@minlib.net with questions.
