Tweens can create different art projects using various mediums and materials.
Macrame, tying knots to make a decorative pattern, was a common pastime of sailors. They made items to sell when they went ashore. Some folklore also suggests sailors made bracelets for loved ones to wear while they were out at sea. Learn how to make a sailor knot bracelet for yourself (or for a friend/family member) this summer at the Beatley Central Library.
Tween Art is for those ages 8-12. This program will be in-person and indoors. Space is limited. Participants can enter the room 15 minutes before the start time.
While children ages 0-5 are now eligible for vaccines, the library is continuing to offer outdoor programming and is slowly phasing in indoor programming for all ages. Until it is determined to be safe for both staff and patrons, we will not offer maximum occupancy to indoor events. Indoor programming in meeting rooms will be phased in starting with 30% of maximum room occupancy for programs for children. Please arrive early to indoor programs as space is limited. Masks may be required at some indoor programs for all participants.
