Tis the season to be jolly, and what better way than to help others in our community! We are gratefully accepting donations of new and unopened items, such as diapers, baby formula, clothing, toys, small household items, etc. These will be distributed via a "giving tree" that will be set up at the Baldwin Boettcher Library.
Those in need of something from the tree will bring us a leaf from it that lists an available item and will be able to leave with the real item in hand. There will be a limit of 1 item per family per week.
Join us in the library conference room to ease into art by painting or decoupaging glass vases in holiday themed designs for gifts or just to decorate your own dinner table. Note: if you want to do a different non-holiday design, your cool ideas are totally welcome! Supplies are limited so registration is required. For ages 18 & up.
