Have you ever created a masterpiece at a paint and sip event, only to find the next day you should have focused a little more on the painting and less on the sipping?

Have you come to realize that while Van Gogh could sip absinthe while creating classic works of art, you're just not built that way, and besides, you're fond of both of your ears? Then this is the event for you! Modestly priced, mocktails included, and it supports a good cause! Final day for registration and payment is Friday, 9/25/2026. Online registration and payment (via PayPal or Venmo) is quick and easy. Payment can also be accepted at the library adult circulation desk before 5:30 pm Friday.
