DIY Papel Picado

Join the Conneaut Public Library this summer for a creative celebration during our Summer Reading event, "Where Every Page Is Magic!" From June 1st to August 1st, unleash your imagination with two exciting activities. First, participate in the DIY Papel Picado workshop from July 27th to August 1st, where all ages can create vibrant paper flags inspired by the traditional Mexican craft of papel picado. Use cut paper patterns and bright colors to make your own festive masterpiece while learning about this beautiful art form. Additionally, join our Disney-inspired Bookmark Contest by picking up a bookmark template to design your own magical creation, either at home or in the library. Return your completed bookmark for a chance to be displayed in Gallery 304, with community voting taking place August 3rd-8th. Winners will be announced on August 10th, with prizes including a $25 gift card for one Youth, one Teen, and one Adult, and the opportunity for their bookmarks to be professionally printed and available for patrons to take home. Don’t miss this chance to add creativity and color to your summer! *Activities are while supplies last.
