Not all events at the library involve books.
Not long ago, we stopped by Midland Library to see a paper crafts class that brightened up an otherwise dreary Sunday afternoon for kids and their parents
“This is paper art for children,” explained the instructor, Jean Choy, “and also for adults who like to make art!”
Choy said she’s taught Chinese-style brush painting for 25 years, and enjoys creating art in charcoal and pen and ink. “I’m also a Chinese language teacher.”
