Summer Crafts with Natalie: Painted Seashell Lighthouse
Join Natalie in the library's Creative Loft to paint and glue two seashells into a mini lighthouse scene (a spiral mollusk shell will be the lighthouse glued into a large scallop shell). You'll get to pick your own color scheme and personalize your creation in this fun, in-person, adult class. No experience is necessary. All materials will be provided. Registration required.
Please note that this is an adult class. This is an opportunity for adults to have fun and socialize with other adults in a quiet and relaxing atmosphere, 18+. In the event that you need to cancel, please contact us by the morning of the class in order to allow someone from the Waitlist a spot.
