HENNA TATTOOS
A Teen Program at Springfield Public Library

What: Henna Tattoos for Teens
When: 4:30 p.m., Tuesday, June 27
Where: Library Meeting Room, Springfield Public Library, 225 5th Street, Springfield OR 97477
Additional Information: Cara Kinsey, 541-726-4653

Come learn about the traditional art form of henna tattoos and then get hands on by creating your own tattoo! Teens, ages 12+, are invited to this program at 4:30 p.m., Tuesday, June 27 in the Library Meeting Room at Springfield Public Library. 

Henna tattoos are temporary but can take some weeks to wear off. Henna is made from natural ingredients. Teens are welcome to come learn and experience the fun, whether or not they want any markings on their own skin.

All summer long and beyond, teens are invited to come to the library on Tuesdays at 4:30 p.m. for diverse programming opportunities. Explore these programs and more at www.wheremindsgrow.org/events.
