Fair Haven Free Library features craft program with local artist

Saturday, Feb. 17, 9 a.m.—FAIR HAVEN—The Friends of the Fair Haven Free Library invite community members to come make a bowl from coiled magazine paper with local artist Caren Helm. The program will take place on Saturday, Feb. 17 from 9 a.m. until noon in the library.

This craft originated with the women of Vietnam and Thailand. Today, this technique has made its way into American’s crafty hearts. This is a simple method that participants will be able to repeat again and again to make durable, long lasting gifts. Attendees will also get a list of instructions. Helm said that there is no special talent or experience needed to have a great time and be creative.

Each person needs to bring a small bottle of tacky glue (Elmer’s is not suitable for this project); the rest will be provided. This craft day will be similar to a quilting bee: fun, chatter and amazing results! Space is limited to 20 people, so don’t delay!

For more information or to reserve your spot, call the library at 802-265-8011.

The Fair Haven Free Library is located at 107 N. Main Street in Fair Haven, Vt.
