Northeast Branch

Meeting Room

We are going to the Land Down Under! Enter Australia's Western Desert and see how family stories are carried from one generation to the next.

Every family has its story, and we will pass on our personal tales by painting with the dot art technique used by Australia's aboriginal peoples.  For ages 5-12.  Space is limited.  Please register all children in your group who will be participating.

Made possible by funds from the Warren County Division of Cultural and Heritage Affairs, a partner of the New Jersey State Council on the Arts, and with support from the Northeast Friends of the Warren County Library.
