In celebration of Earth Day approaching on April 22nd, the Museum of Lennox & Addington will offer two programs centered on the environment during the last week of April.
This Saturday afternoon at 1:30pm, the Museum will offer a Heritage Arts Workshop, titled Earth Day Bouquet. Participants will learn paper folding techniques to create a one-of-a-kind bouquet using gently used books. The workshop will be taught by Sherri of Reclaimed Words, a Kingston-based artist who creates art and home décor pieces with paper folding techniques from recycled and used books. Registration is required in advance.
Then during Tuesday Night at the Museum on April 25th, guest speaker Dr. Shelley Arnott, a Professor in the Biology Department at Queen’s University, will speak to the impact of road salts on aquatic life. In this informative talk, learn about current research taking place to find safer alternatives that will protect our lakes and streams. The presentation will begin at 7:00pm, with Museum doors opening at 6:30pm. The cost is $3 per person to attend. You can learn more about the event here.
