Crafternoon series resumes at Litchfield Historical Society

LITCHFIELD — The Litchfield Historical Society’s Crafternoons will explore a new theme in history with hands-on crafts and games that encourage students to look away from the screen and tap into their own imagination. Crafts are recommended for children in first through seventh grade. Sessions held once a month on a Thursday, from 3:30-5 p.m.

Jan. 11: Let it Snow! How do you like to spend a snow day? Learn about some of Litchfield’s epic snowstorms through fun crafts and games.

February 8: Valentine’s Day Special for Families. All family members are invited to this special crafternoon. Learn about the history of Valentine’s Day while making Victorian Valentines for your family and friends.

Crafternoons are $7 for members and $10 for non-members. Registration is required. Payment is required at time of registration.
