Craft Corner
Craft Corner is an all-ages, intergenerational program that brings the community together to create projects throughout the year. With a focus on using different materials and upcycling when possible, each craft is designed to appeal to kids, teens, and adults. Bring your family or neighbors for some hands-on fun! If you'd like, you can even bring your own materials to make the planned craft or create something uniquely your own.
Keeping your body busy so your brain can focus is an important self-regulation skill for a lot of people! Stop by and make some great new disability pride and ally themed pin-back buttons to decorate your backpack.
