Description

Try your hand at something new this spring during our Arts in the Park workshops!

For April, join Ranger Powell to learn about trash, leave no trace, and how to give new life to everyday trash through art. 

Instructions and materials to make paper beads will be provided.

Paper beads will be made out of magazine and old calendar pages. If you have old magazines or calendars around the house, bring them along!

This event is open to all ages, but children who are able to write will have greater success in creating the paper beads. 

Reservation or Registration: No

Space for the program will be on a first come first served basis.
