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.

Join us in the library conference room to ease into art by painting in watercolor and paint pen on rice paper. It will be a beautiful yet not too hard Asian scene. You will also get the opportunity to sign your work of art not just in your name, but written in Chinese. Registration is required and it is for ages 18 & up.
We look forward to seeing you there!

Fossils take too long to make so it's a good thing we've got a shortcut! Learn how to make a salt dough and use our pieces to make fossil-like impressions in yours, or bring dino-themed items of your own! 

For tweens aged 8-12.
