Light-filled paper crafts for all skill levels to bring us safely together through the year’s longest night. Come celebrate the solstice and our hopes for the return of the sun.

This event involves drop in, self-guided crafting and will take place upstairs at the long tables by the computers. A limited number of grab-and-go versions of the activities will also be available.

Homeslice Puppetry will be here to run this more advanced version of a run-of-the-mill Sock Puppet class.  This class teaches the basics of creating a puppet character, all the elements essential for this, and how to turn that into a puppet. Then students will learn to build a mouth plate and by using this plate as well as some foam for a “skull”, they will give their puppets a much greater range of motion and movement than an average sock puppet.  Students will then proceed to create their characters and build their puppets bringing their socks to life!​ Ages 7 and up. Registration is required–register at the library in person or by calling us at 413-527-1031 or emailing us at youthdept@ewmlibrary.org.
