Library Programs
My creative drive has pulled me to teach some classes in recent years. I've taught a few at my local library for children and adults. The few I've done in the past were for different kinds of crafts, but as my list of mediums grow, I look forward to doing many different programs in the future!
Available Programs

Patrons will then get to draw their own constellation (or use an example of existing constellations provided), marking where they want the stars to be, and I will punch out the designated stars.
