For the last two month's Sacramento has been reading Mark Twain's Adventures of Tom Sawyer.  ArtWorks@the Library only has a few programs left:


October 25th -- Cigar Box Art at Orangevale Library
Mark Twain enjoyed smoking cigars. What to do with the left-over boxes? Create a one-of-a-kind art piece or fashion into a creative use. 

October 26th -- Mark Twain's Inventions
Mark Twain created and patented a self-adhesive scrapbook, a typesetting machine and other inventions. Create an invention of your own, using bits of this and that.
