****Updated: 7/18/2025****
FROSTING DAY!! NO REGISTRATION NEEDED! 
We are switching things up and planning for more of a drop-in vibe this Saturday from 10:00am - 12:00pm. National Velvet, artist-in-residence, will be present and assisting makers (bakers??) of all ages with all the messiest, stickiest 'frosting,' embellishments, and sprinklings. Stop by and make something visually delicious*! 

*In the Fake Bakery located in the Bubbler Room all 'cakes' are sculptures and all 'ingredients' are NOT edible  :)

Do you have big cake dreams? Does frosting one little fake cupcake just not cut it? Do you want to make a unique structure out of cardboard, paper mache it, then add frosting and intricate decorations? This special 2 session workshop is just for you. The first session will be cake form construction and paper mache. The structures will have time to dry in between sessions. The second session will focus on painting, frosting, sprinkles, decorations, and candles. 
This workshop is open to all ages (6+) we anticipate that most kids ages under 10 will need direct, hands-on adult support. The workshop takes place on 7/12 & 7/19. All registrants must commit to attend the entire session on both days. 
Saturday, July 12 from 10:00am - 12:00pm at Central Library
AND Saturday, July 19 from 10:00am - 12:00pm at Central Library
*Please fill out a registration for both sessions. Both youth patrons and adult patrons should be entered seperately so we can account for the correct amount of supplies.
