THANKSGIVING HANDPRINT PLATES
As we fall further into autumn, we can’t help but feel so grateful for our books, our library, and for all of you! Thank you for a wonderful year filled with lots of fun, crafts, community, reading, and so much more. To show our appreciation, we are excited to add a new handprint plate to your growing collection. Availability is limited—register now to reserve your spot!
In an effort to make each plate as special as it deserves, we will create each family’s plate(s) in individual sessions. Each session will be scheduled for 30 minutes and can accommodate up to 3 children. Please choose a time slot from the available sessions in the link below that works for your family/group!
Each child may make up to 2 handprint plates—no hands are too big or too small! As always, we can place multiple hands on one plate and adjust the design to accommodate larger hands!
To maintain our programming and services, we will be accepting donations for your plates on a pay-what-you-can basis—no one will be turned away for lack of funds. If you would like to make a donation, please use the link below or bring cash on the day of your session. Thank you!
If you do not see an available date/time that works for you, or have any other questions or concerns, please email our Youth Programmer, Maddie (they/them), at mbarton@mclinc.org so we can accommodate your scheduling needs!
*This project will require acrylic paint, which is harder to remove from clothes. While we will provide wipes and will make every effort to remain clean, we encourage you to dress in clothes you don’t mind getting stained.*
