Have you ever heard of porch goose? If your answer was no, prepare to amaze yourself, because you can make your own porch goose at Octavia Fields Library. A porch goose is a concrete porch decoration that originated in the Upper Ohio River Valley as a take on fiercely protective geese that guard their homes. Porch geese are seasonally decorated to celebrate holidays and special events. Come and join us to paint your own porch goose and maybe even spend some extra time with us making your porch goose's first holiday outfit.
