1. Speaking Up, Speaking Out with Mosaic Templars at Laman Library, Thurs. at 4:30 pm

Buttons have been used for decades to express political opinions and were especially popular during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s. In this program, students (grades 4 through college) will use their artistic ability to design and create their own wearable buttons to speak up and speak out.
