It isn't too early to collage wooden coasters for a Valentine gift or create a miniature art gallery by hanging them up on your wall!

Decoupage is the art of applying a collage of paper onto a surface. We will be working with Mod Podge so dress for mess!

Now Showing: The Princess and the Frog 🎬

A prince is transformed into a frog and accidentally curses a beautiful princess with an amphibian form as well when he kisses her in an attempt to break the spell. The two then go a wild journey through the bayous of Louisiana in hopes of finding a voodoo priestess who may be able to restore their true forms.

Rated G; runtime 97 minutes

Popcorn will be available! As part of an effort to become more sustainability-focused, we encourage you to bring your own (reasonably sized!) bowl.

Start the New Year Right!

It's the new year, when many people think about resolutions, new hobbies and other endeavors. Sometimes, that means cleaning out your home.

Join Emily Kloeblen Saturday, January 10th at 10:30 a.m. for part one where she will share helpful tips and tricks for tackling the often daunting task of downsizing, moving and (or) resettlingtable.

Part II of this workshop takes place two weeks later, where you will have the chance to discuss your efforts (or lack thereof!) with Emily and other attendees.
