Make Your Own Pride Parade Sign is a drop-in crafting workshop hosted by the library's Maker and STEAM team in the Innovation Lab. Kids, teens, and parents can use the provided art supplies to design custom posters to carry during the local parade the following day. This self-paced activity is completely free and takes place on the third floor of the library. All materials are provided, so you do not need to bring anything with you. Parking is available in the library lot, and the space is stroller-friendly, though the crafting is best suited for preschool-aged children and older who can handle markers and scissors. It is a smart Friday afternoon stop because it keeps the creative mess out of your own kitchen. Plus, your kids will head into the weekend with a personalized accessory ready for the Saturday morning festivities.
