Join us each month for a hands-on DIY experience for adults and teens!

Get inspired by Creativebug - an online database offering thousands of craft classes free with your Douglas County Library card - and create something new alongside fellow makers. Each month we will feature a different project, from jewelry and painting to paper crafts and more.

This month's project: Beaded Succulents

Create a charming, low-maintenance “plant” using colorful beads and wire in this hands-on craft program. Participants will design a beaded succulent that drapes beautifully from a mini pot—no watering required!

AGE GROUP: | Teens | Adults |
