Here is another Make & Wake: Redo. Create an art piece with acrylic paint, hot glue, and add some sparkle to your canvas with glitter!
Do you love crafting? Do you love caffeine? Join the arts & crafts program Make & Wake where we do a new project each session while sipping on coffee or tea, provided by the library. Feel free to bring your own cup of love to drink during the program. Adults only.
De-stress, unwind, and enjoy the almost-magical calm that comes from painting with watercolors.
Each week features a different theme -- we'll have some inspiration and supplies ready for you! But feel free to create something else if you'd like.
Want pointers on painting techniques? We'll do our best to help! But please keep in mind that this is not an art class -- it's a chance to be creative and relax while enjoying each other's company in an encouraging environment.
