Learn about winter holidays around the world, while also learning how to operate the Studio's Cricut Autopress. Create and take home a holiday two-color tote bag!
Join us at The Studio at Pontiac as we explore a few of the global holidays that take place from December through February. Alongside the global holidays, you will learn how to operate a Cricut Autopress in order to decorate a tote bag with a heat transfer vinyl. This project utilizes pre-cut holiday images using the Cricut Maker Electric Cutting Machine, designs you will learn to prepare for heatpressing. Limited to 12 participants.
This program was designed for 7th grade and up, but younger children may attend if an adult/guardian/caregiver is present to assist them throughout the program. Each child in sixth grade or younger attending the program must be directly supervised and assisted by a responsible caregiver while in the Studio. Most ACPL programs welcome guests, however the Studio programs can only accommodate registered patrons and their supervising caregivers.
Space is limited: Register in advance to reserve your spot and receive reminders. Registration will guarantee your seat until the event begins.
