Get creative at the Newton Free Library on  February 19th at 3:00 pm (Teens) and 7:00 pm (Families and Adults) in Druker Auditorium by creating your own wearable art.

Feel free to bring your own clothing or items to decorate, or use what we have available. Kevin Osborn, local Maker and long-time engineer with a passion for teaching people to create things they may never have dreamed of, will lead the workshop. The Teen session is open to grades 6-12.
