Bubble Tea Patches with Pop Up Art School

Putterham

Wednesday, April 17 at 6:30 PM

Make a Bubble Tea Patch and learn the basics of needle felting with Pop Up Art School! Spread some positivi-tea when you make your own bubble tea from wool. Use the finished piece as a patch on a jacket, or frame it for a unique piece of art! Choose from a matcha or fruit-flavored Boba. Add a cute smiling face or your own unique touches. You’ll leave the class with a completed piece and the tools and knowledge to needle felt on your own!

This program is for tweens ages 11+, teens, and adults. Open to the first 15 participants. A free ticket is required to attend.
Tickets will be available at the main desk of the Putterham Library starting at 6 PM.
