Join us for our first of four sustainable crafting programs! We will have family-friendly craft stations set up indoors where you can choose from decorating a cardboard toy birdhouse, making and painting paper clay birds or figurines out of paper shreddings and making popsicle stick bird feeders.
- Cardboard Birdhouses
- They will be premade, and you will decorate and customize them using paints, markers, crayons, paper mache or collage.
- Paper Clay
- Make birds or other items to put inside your birdhouse.
- Bird Feeders
- Make a birdfeeder out of popsicle sticks and go home with seed to attract feathered friends in your neighborhood.
