The sky is the limit with this workshop - multimedia &/or 3D….but you know it will include FUN in a multiage, low stress, process oriented environment.

Get into the fall spirit with this fun and cozy craft night! In this workshop, you’ll learn the art of needle felting — using wool roving and special barbed needles to sculpt and shape soft, fuzzy creations.

Step by step, we’ll guide you through making your very own adorable felted mini- pumpkins. No experience needed — this is a beginner-friendly craft that’s as relaxing as it is creative.

We’ll provide everything you need:
Wool roving in gorgeous fall colors
Felting tools and supplies
Guidance to make your pumpkin unique

Book Bedazzling For Teens

For teens aged 13-19 years.

Have you heard about Book Bedazzling?

The idea is you pick out a book with a cover you like, and then you color in the picture by gluing rhinestones to the cover. "Think diamond art, but where the book cover is your canvas. It’s a relaxing activity where you can be as creative as you want to be."

CCPL and the CCPL Teen Advisory Council invite all Teens to stop by to bedazzle a book with a fun cover.

You can bring a favorite book from home or choose one from some we will have on hand. All supplies will be furnished.

No registration is required.

Join us October 1st at the Greenway Trail Fun Run. This is a free event for all ages, bring the whole family! Registration starts at 5:00 pm and the Fun Run will begin at 5:30 pm. For more information contact the Paducah Parks and Recreation office at (270)444-8508. We look forward to seeing you there!
