Youth Grab & Go Craft Kits

Parents! Need crafts for your children? Never fear, the library is here! Stop by any of our library locations to pick up your Grab & Go craft kit to complete at home. We're pairing a brief instructional video featuring one of our youth staff along with a free take-home supply kit, available while supplies last. Kits are fully assembled and ready to pick up. These kits are appropriate for ages 12 and under, though kids younger than 5 years old will need an adult helper.
