NOLS offers CreativiTea: Embroidery

The North Olympic Library System (NOLS) invites adults to grab a warm cup of tea (or other favorite beverage) and join friends for a virtual crafting get together.

CreativiTea: Embroidery is set for 6-8 p.m. Tuesday, May 4, on Zoom. Go to nols.org, or by calling a NOLS branch to receive a Zoom link and to reserve a craft kit for pickup.
