Last chance for "make and take art" Friday

Library invites you to create your art masterpiece

Art is where you find it - or where you make it.

And, the Bluffton Public Library invites you to make "and take" your own art anytime on Friday, March 31. It's the final opportunity in the "Make and Take Art" option during the month.

Here's how it works:
The library has stations set up throughout the main floor for budding artists to create a piece of art. The stations are available all day and are open to patrons of all ages.

When you complete your work, you may take it home a frame it.
