We'll be having chicken mostaccioli, salad, Italian bread, spiced beets, green beans, and a wonderful strawberry shortcake dessert.

Glass Paint & Bake Craft
Friday, January 25th at 1:00 P.M.

Let's make some beautiful painted glassware together! You bring the glass and we'll supply the brushes and paints. Bring any item made of glass (i.e-cups, wine glasses, candy dish, vase, etc.), and we'll paint decorations on them. Some design examples will be provided, but feel free to bring your own. No artistic skills required. Because glass is clear you can easily tape a design to your item and paint over the lines. At the end of the project we'll send you home with directions on how to bake the glass so the paint remains permanent. If needed, we can also take your item home and bake it for you. Signing up in advance is required to ensure enough supplies. Please stop by or call the Center at 485-8112 to reserve your spot.
