HIDDEN LIBRARIES: TURNING BOOKS INTO SECRET BOXES (ages 14+)

Jen Kinney will teach attendees how to turn ordinary books into secret containers. We will learn to make traditional hollow books as well as unique, individual box designs. (Boxes provided for first 10 attendees, otherwise please bring your own.)

12-2 pm:

PAINT PLAYGROUND (ages 1-5)

Children will explore various non-toxic, child-safe art materials in the art studio ending with water play. T-shirt smocks and washcloths will be provided.

2-4 pm:

CD WEAVING (all ages)

Unity and Variety are two principles of composition in art, and they are two driving principles of community as well. The weavings are as individual as the people who made them, beautiful and unique. We may only see the colors and textures of the weavings, but the CDs contain data and information, much like the hidden, inner story of the individuals around us.

* Does not include Fill-A-Bag materials
