Wreaths of Khan Gallery (December 2024)
A most excellent variety of wreaths were created by participants at the library’s Wreaths of Khan event this December. To Khan or not to Khan, that was the question. Check out our creations below!
Teen Crafts
Project Shrink Plastic Gallery (July 2024)
Teens played with shrink plastic at this fun event and we all ooh-ed and ahh-ed as we watched our creations brighten in color as they diminished in size. This is still so fun! See what everyone made below:
Build It: Recyclables Gallery (July 2024)
We hauled out some craft supplies and saved our recyclables this month so teens could repurpose them in new ways. Here are some of their creations:
Project Perler Gallery (May 2024)
Remember Perler beads? We got a little nostalgic for our childhood and brought out these fun, fusable, plastic beads. You can make pretty much anything with them! Teens tried out some of our example patterns and came up with their own designs. Check out what we made below:
Melt and Pour Soap Gallery (April 2024)
Teen participants learned how to make soap the easy way using the melt and pour method. Here are some of their beautiful (and fragrant) creations!
February Bookmarks
A group of Volunteens (teen volunteers) made these fantastic bookmarks today for our library visitors this month (February, 2024). Thanks for sharing your artistic talent! These are great!
Galaxy Journals Gallery (December 2023)
Participants created journals that are out of this world at this December 2023 event. See what they made below:
Haunted Birdhouses Gallery (October 2023)
While we’re not sure if any actual birds will be attracted to these haunted houses that teens created at the library in October 2023, we did have a lot of fun creating them. Check out our creations below:
Teen/Adult Try Its: Pour Painting Gallery (June 2023)
Teens and adults tried pour painting under the guidance of instructor and expert doodler Jen Keller (The Oodlearium). It was a messy, delicious, creative time and everyone made something unique! Take a gander at some photos from the event:
Cherry Blossom Watercolor Gallery (April 2023)
Using watercolor pencils, a reference image, and a clever pencil transfer technique for tracing the image, teens created their own cherry blossom masterpieces in watercolor. Even though they were all working from the same image, everyone’s turned out different. See their creations below:
