The Greenwood Lake Public Library, in collaboration with Creative Arts Workshop, announced two new art programs for young adults. At “Change, Action and Me,” on Saturday, April 9, at 1:00 p.m., each young adult will create their own mantra or slogan to represent the change they would like to see in the world. Students will take home their finished shirt.
At “Color, Design and Our Winged Friends,” on Saturday, May 28, at 1:00 p.m., the group will design and create a series of botanical themed mosaic birdhouses to live on the trees at the Greenwood Lake Public Library. Students will also make a bird feeder to take home.
