"Doodle Rocks: Rock Painting at the La Salle Public Library

On Tuesday, June 25th, the La Salle Public Library will host Linda Volker from the Girl Scouts of Central Illinois when she facilitates two rock painting workshops for youth.   

The first workshop will be at 10:30 a.m. and is for youth ages 7 through 9.  Youth can let their imaginations soar by painting geometric designs, words of kindness, colorful scenes, whimsical animals or favorite characters.   Clear-coating is available.   The second workshop will be for youth ages 10 to 14 at 12:30 p.m.  Youth can take advantage of the unique shape of the stones by painting the entire surface to look like bees, beetles, cactus, cats, feathers, fish, foxes, hippos, hedgehogs, ice cream cones with cherries on top, igloos, owls, pandas, penguins, piggies, pizzas, turtles, and tigers, to name a few...the sky is the limit and kids can paint that too. 

Both workshops are free and open to the public but do require registration and are limited to 20 participants per workshop.   For more information, contact the Library at 815-223-2341.
