The holiday season is here, and it’s the perfect time to get creative with decorations — starting with something you can find right outside: milkweed pods! Join us at Isle a la Cache Museum to discover fun and fascinating facts about milkweed and its vital role in the life cycle of the monarch butterfly. Then tap into your artistic side as we transform milkweed pods into beautiful holiday ornaments using paint, glue and other craft supplies. All materials will be provided, and you'll leave with a unique, handmade decoration to impress your holiday guests.
Two sessions will be offered:
Session 1: 10:30 a.m.-noon
Session 2: 1:30-3 p.m.
Fee: Free!
Age: All ages! Children must be accompanied by a registered adult.
