Library to host stuffed-animal event
Marion City Library will host a Safari Stuffed Animal workshop at 7 p.m. June 7 in the Santa Fe Room.
Children age 5 and older must register by May 15, and choose the animal they wish to make—elephant, monkey, hippo or tiger. The cost is $10. Call the library at 620-382-2442 to register.
At the workshop, children will hand-stuff their animal with fluff and love, then insert wishes and special intentions inside each animal. When complete, the children will name their animal and receive a birth certificate for it.
