We have hip AND delicious programs happening this week, so stop and see us!
Monday, Metamorphosis, 3:30-5:30pm: You know all those t-shirts and tote bags you have with designs on them? Designs that look like they were painted on? They were screenprinted and that’s what we’re going to learn how to do today! I’ll even show you how you can screenprint at home with simple materials so you can make your own t-shirts whenever inspiration strikes!
Tuesday, Act One, 2:30-4:30pm: Loosen up and act out short plays and play improv games with Beth and an actor who recently graduated from the Peters Township High School Theatre Troupe!

Friday, Late Night @ the Library, 6:30-9:30pm: Two of our favorite things combine this week, chocolate and music. Come dip fruit and popcorn in melted chocolate, eat cookies, chocolate kisses, chocolate-covered pretzels, and more with us! We’ll have a chocolate and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory-themed trivia contest. If you get a chance, make a mix CD or tape to bring with you. We’ll put them all in a box, play some of them during the chocolate sampling, and then everyone who brought a mix gets to pick one out of the box to take home with them. What could be better than a night of chocolate and new music???
Saturday, Project Design, 11am-1pm: Come alter t-shirts, learn how to turn plastic grocery bags into fabric, and shrink plastic into jewelry with us! We’ll also use fabric, boxes, index cards, candy wrappers, and whatever you can think of to make more clothing and accessories.
