About this event
Best for ages 3 and older with their families. In this session, we’re celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with muñecas quitapenas, or worry dolls. Muñecas quitapenas likely originated in ancient Mayan culture and are still used today. Use supplies provided by the library to customize your own creation. If you wish, share your worries with them and tuck them under your pillow before you go to sleep, a traditional use! No registration required. This is an open house format program. Drop in anytime and stay as long as you like. Last entry is 15 minutes before the program end time. Please note there may be small pieces and adult guidance is encouraged. Supplies are available while they last.
