The Free Library is Hosting a Gingerbread House Workshop Featuring Real Life Architects
What better way to show your love for the Free Library (1901 Vine Street.) than recreating your branch as a gingerbread house?!

Participants will learn fundamental architectural and design elements and the history of the libraries, as well as basic piping and decorating techniques. Each ticket supplies a large cookie canvas to recreate the iconic facade of the Parkway Central Library and display throughout the holiday season.
