Event Details

Maker in Residence Cara McKinley wants you to pick a challenge from this video to complete in just an hour! Watch the video for inspiration prompts such as...

  • Make a tree ornament that you would want to live in if you were a bird
  • make an instrument as tall and as wide as your body out of household objects and materials
  • Watch the video to find more creative challenges!

Are you up for the challenge? Watch the video, gather supplies (remember to rethink tools, waste, and materials around you), set a timer or alarm, and go make something! 

We can't wait to see what you'll create! Join PPLD in celebrating Arts Month!
