What’s Happening at the Library
Teen Craft with Pop Up Art
Monday, July 20 @ 6:30
Learn the joy of needle felting with Pop up Art School.Using colorful wool and a special barbed needle you will sculpt a fun green carnivorous plant complete with fangs and a bright red tongue, all rooted in a real terra-cotta pot. This playful needle felting project is a great introduction to a unique, tactile craft and results in a finished piece that’s equal parts quirky, cute, and display-worthy. This program is for teens entering grade 7 and up. Registration is required and space is limited. This program is funded by the Anderson Foundation.
