SUMMARY:05/04 Cool BUDS (18+) Ambers Making Waves
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday\, May 4th at 3 pm.  We will create hearts on an 8×8-inch canvas\, using resin as the glue to keep your masterpiece in place.

Although the resin used is non-toxic\, it does have a mild odor\, if you are sensitive you may consider bringing a mask with you. \n\n\n\nLocation: Lakewood Ranch Library Community Room B. \n\n\n\nThis event is open to 1 Cool BUD plus 1 adult assistant.
