Grades 7-12: Learn about the history of bottle trees in African American folklore and make a miniature bottle tree to keep.

From real-life gardens to the Tristan Strong books, bottle trees have long been a part of African American culture. We'll create miniatures using wire, tiny bottles, and other craft supplies.

Space is limited: register in advance to reserve your spot and receive reminders. Registration will guarantee your seat until the event begins. Accessibility needs? Please contact ask@acpl.info as soon as possible - we’d love to help.
