FREE Christmas Card making workshops

Lindsay Upton from Manukau East Council of Social Services (MECOSS)

Sending Love is an initiative encouraging people to give a Christmas card/s to lonely aging people in our community who will be confined to a rest home during the festive season.
At this time of year, nothing is more personal and meaningful than to receive a custom-made Christmas card.
Megan Lawrence from Crop Craft Create, has donated two free drop-in sessions and paper crafting company Close To My Heart in America have donated beautiful cards to help you fashion something a little bit special. With Megan's assistance you'll turn them into a collectable keepsake that’ll be cherished by the recipient.  


WHERE: Howick Library, 25 Uxbridge Rd, Howick, Auckland
DAY & DATE: Wednesday, 13 December 2017
TIME: 9:30am to 11:30am 
And
WHERE: Botany Town Centre Library, Sunset Terrace, East Tamaki, Auckland
DAY & DATE: Thursday, 14 December 2017
