anim_butterfly_01 2:00 PM Craft Workshop with Margo: Snowflakes in Albany? Remind Me about this Event Download Event Info Tell a Friend
    Fascinating forms take shape at Margo's craft workshop.

We'll experiment with texture and color making city-scape paper collages: some flat and some not so flat, some like the street you live on, and some rather fantastic, perhaps peopled with parading paper penguins!  Will there be snowflakes in Albany?  Chances are slim, unless they're folded, maybe pleated, and cut out of paper. We'll be making them at the library;  perhaps you'll want to incorporate those flakes in your cityscape!  We'll be folding the traditional chrysanthemum kusudama, too!

 Free. No registration required. Drop-in's welcome!
