ADULT PROGRAMS APRIL 2023
Did you miss this new bead craft last month? You have a second chance! 
Due to the popularity, we are holding another session.
What is diamond painting? Apply sparkling resin rhinestones, one-by-one, on an adhesive color-coded canvas (in this case, a bookmark). The result is a shimmering work of art.
 
It all started with a one page catalog… Join us for a nostalgic look back at the one-time mega superstore, but now floundering Sears empire. Bob Trzeciak will share many humorous (and some not so humorous) letters that were actually addressed to “Dear Mr. Sears” even after he had long since passed away.
