Our garden needs some new signs. Come help members of the community garden paint signs and rocks to add color and information to our garden. This activity is appropriate for most ages. Adults are encouraged to participate.
August 16th - Exploring the Garden
We will be using flowers, leaves, sticks and whatever else nature provides to make beautiful paintings to take home.
August 30th - Stained Glass Mosaic
We will be using nature and craft supplies to make our own stained ‘glass’ windows. Come create a beautiful piece of art and capture the last signs of summer to take home with you.
We will try and have ample supplies however this will be first come first served so arrive on time. There is no charge for supplies.
