The Pella Public Library invites the community to participate in an Upcycle Challenge as a celebration of Earth Day. All homes and businesses generate waste, and the library has been saving items that can’t be recycled, but seem too good to throw away.

Upcycle Kits are available this month to create something new, and there will be an exhibit of all finished projects at the library throughout April and Tulip Time. Guidelines for the Challenge and information about submitting an item for display will be included with the kit.

The Pella Art Center will be offering a morning workshop on Friday, March 17 to provide a space to create and get a little help if needed.

The Upcycle Challenge is free and open to all ages. Please contact the Pella Public Library at 641-628-4268 if you have any questions about this program. For information about the Pella Art Center workshop registration and fee contact Pella Community Services at 641-628-4571
