Watercolor for “Young at heART” adults meets every Tuesday morning to enjoy watercolor painting while commiserating with fellow artists! This friendly and social group is open to all adults and to all levels of art experience, including those who have never painted with watercolor at all. Sometimes the group works on individual projects and sometimes there is an art education period. Sometimes you will learn something new and sometimes you can teach something to others. Join in for a morning of beautiful art and fun conversation!
Buzz on over to the library and get crafting! Whether you are picking up a needle for the absolute first time or looking to share your passion for stitching, you are warmly invited to join the "Be a Merribee" family.
Love to journal?
Come and meet with like minded individuals who love to write and share the things that they have written down, based on the prompts that have been given.
Join us on Fridays at 1PM to craft and chat.
Everyone is welcome to knit, crochet, cross-stitch, sew, needlepoint, or embroider with us! Some members donate finished items to local charities.
We are happy to help old and new crafters with their projects, but this is NOT a formal class. Please bring your own supplies.
