Kimball Library News 8/1/24

CRAFT, PAINT & COLOR: Mondays from 12:30 – 2:30 PM

Come unwind, de-stress and create every week. Individuals come together to dabble in painting, coloring or creative crafts using oil, acrylic, watercolor, pen and pencil. Individuals bring their own supplies and work on canvas, wood, sketchpads and coloring books. Group size will be limited and registration is required.

Research shows that creative activities help you relax. This is an open time so feel free to stay the entire time, leave early or come late. Remember this is a no stress event so if you only have 30 minutes to spare than spend it relaxing with fellow creative art enthusiasts.
