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.
Join us to make spooky jars using upcycled glass jars, paint, and various art materials. Light up the night with your spooky jar at the Haunted Trails and Tales event being held in Scoville park afterward.
