Join us for July's Craft & Connect program, where we will be creating beautiful Clay Impressions! Using plant and flower-themed stencils, you'll design a custom clay ornament that reflects your own style. Choose from a variety of botanical patterns and shapes, then press and decorate your piece to make it truly one of a kind.

Want to add a personal touch? Feel free to bring along small natural items, such as shells, leaves, or other textured objects, that you can press into the clay to create unique impressions.

🎨 This free adult program requires registration. Contact your local branch to reserve your spot and get creative with us!

📅 Dates, locations, and times for all Craft & Connect sessions can be found on our Events Calendar.

We can't wait to see what you create!
