For the 2025 Adult Summer Reading Program events, this year’s theme is “Color Our World”.
We invite you to embark on a journey of art & creativity, celebrating the many ways art enriches our lives. Our program is designed to inspire you through weekly color-concentrated events, learning & fun. Week 2, we’re celebrating the next color of the rainbow — ORANGE.
Join us on Thursday, June 12th from 6 to 8pm, UPSTAIRS in the Marion library, to make greeting cards with origami maple leaves. This fun craft makes a cute décor item you can frame or a card you can pass along to a friend or family member. No experience needed.
Origami (折り紙, Japanese pronunciation: [oɾiɡami] or [oɾiꜜɡami]) is the Japanese art of paper folding.
All materials provided FREE. Class limited to 15. Ages 18+
