ONGOING ADULT PROGRAMS |

Our latest Crafternoon take-home kit is more of a tool than a start-to-finish craft - a Flower Press! This is perfect for nature lovers and craft enthusiasts alike. This flower press gives you the ability to preserve your favorite flowers and leaves for use in various arts and crafts projects. Wandering through fields and picking wildflowers is required! |

Teens (ages 12-18/grades 6-12) are invited to attend our Teen Advisory Group business meetings, at which we discuss programs that community teens are interested in, and anything else that they have on their minds. Snacks are always served, of course, and no prior experience is needed, nor sign up. A bonus consideration: participating in TAG business meetings can count toward volunteer hours!
In April we had a productive TAG Business Meeting where we talked about lots of ideas for the summer months! We will postpone having another TAG Business Meeting until June 6 at 5:30 PM. Please mark your calendar!
