Calvin Park Branch

The Friends of the Library Community Meeting Room

Join Liv Rondeau, Kanyen'kehá:ka artist and owner of Flint and Maple Beadwork for a new series at KFPL!

Throughout the Bead and Read series, participants will make a loom beaded bookmark and engage in thoughtful discussions around the text of their choice written by an Indigenous author. Participants do not need to have prior beading experience to participate but it is important to be mindful before registering that we will be working with smaller materials (size 10/0 seed beads, size 10 beading needles, and a metal loom). 

Note: This is a three-part series. Registrants will be able to attend each session without re-registering.
