Meeting Room

Create a symmetrical design with a squeeze and a squish.

Can you squeeze and squish?

If so, get registered and come join your library friends to make a symmetrical, abstract masterpiece.

Wear a paint smock or an old T-Shirt because we might get messy. We will fold a piece paper in half. squeeze out some paint on half the paper, and then squish it! When we open the paper we will discover a unique, one of kind creation. 

AGE GROUP: | Preschool (3-5 years) | Elementary (6-11 years) |

EVENT TYPE: | Arts, Crafts, & DIY |
