Join us at the Parker Williams Library for our diamond painting club meeting! Relax, chat and enjoy this beginner friendly adult club. Diamond painting is a craft activity that involves applying tiny resin rhinestones to a pre-printed canvas to create a mosaic-style art piece. It's also known as crystal art or 5D painting.
This craft is a series since diamond painting may take some time. Patrons must finish a painting before they will be allowed to start a new one.
