SUMMARY:Holiday Glass Ornament & Magnet Workshop at the Black Box Theater
DESCRIPTION:Let your imagination sparkle this season! Join us in the Black Box Theater at the Lost Library for a holiday glass ornament and magnet-making class\, presented in collaboration with North Shore Glass School. \nDesign and assemble your own whimsical glass creations using colorful pieces and textures inspired by winter’s magic — twinkling lights\, frosty mornings\, and cozy moments by the fire. This workshop celebrates the joy and creativity of the season\, welcoming all to share in a little handmade holiday wonder. \nYour finished piece will make a perfect handmade gift — a heartfelt token of warmth and creativity for someone special (or a lovely keepsake for yourself). \nPlease note: all ornaments and magnets will be fused off-site and available for pickup from the Lost Library once they’re complete — you won’t take your creations home the same day. \nCome craft something bright and beautiful to bring a touch of magic — and a bit of sparkle — to your holidays!
