Come explore storytelling in a miniature format. With a variety of materials, including brush pens, markers, stamps and collage paper, weโ€™ll illustrate an accordion book. Telling the story of a tree, from seed to fruitful growth, weโ€™ll learn about pace and rhythm from page to page. The narrative will be contained in a small painted box. Bring the whole family; it's perfect for creative minds ages 4 through adult!

A whole crowd of lovable stuffies is waiting to find their forever familiesโ€”and one of them could be yours! Choose your new friend from our adoption center, then discover its unique personality and backstory. Every adopted stuffy comes with an official adoption certificate to make it part of your family.

Weโ€™ll enjoy a story about pet adoption, give our new friends a thorough โ€œvet check,โ€ write or draw a story about our adopted stuffies, and talk about ways we can help real homeless animals in our community. If youโ€™re able, please bring a donation for the Upper Valley Humane Society.
