Step into a world of creativity every first Thursday of the month at Brighton Library with Crafternoon. Designed especially for children aged 8 and above, this after-school event invites young minds to explore a variety of craft stations. Each month offers a fresh theme to inspire and engage, from 3D-printer pens to origami and yarn crafts.
Children can bring their own craft projects or dive into new activities guided by friendly facilitators. It’s the perfect way for kids to unwind after school, make new friends, and express their creativity in a supportive environment.
Expect a vibrant atmosphere filled with laughter, learning, and plenty of hands-on crafting opportunities that spark imagination and skill development.
