Monthly crafts, free guest day, and other activities welcome crafters of all experience levels from Reading and surrounding communities
Wakefield, MA — The Wakefield Arts & Crafts Society is getting ready to kick off its new season on Tuesday, September 8, with a morning of crafting, lunch, and socializing.
The group’s first meeting of the season will take place from 10 a.m. to approximately 1:30 p.m. at the Wakefield-Lynnfield United Methodist Church, 273 Vernon Street, Wakefield.
Members will take part in a workshop led by Sandy Panico to create decorative pinecone trees. The Executive Board will also provide a full lunch.
The society is also inviting the public to its Free Guest Day on Tuesday, October 6. No crafting experience is necessary. Guests will have the opportunity to make two different crafts, meet members and get a feel for what the group is all about.
The meeting location is accessible to people with disabilities and offers free, convenient parking.
The Wakefield Arts & Crafts Society welcomes new members, whether they are experienced crafters or have never tried crafting before. Members come from Wakefield and many surrounding communities, including Reading, North Reading, Melrose, Malden, Everett, Lynn, Tewksbury, Billerica, and Stoneham.
Members can participate in making a new craft every month at no additional cost. The group also offers discounted craft supplies at meetings and provides an opportunity for members to share their crafting skills and expertise.
Throughout the season, the society hosts a variety of activities, including Free Guest Day and a field trip in October, a holiday party in December, winter charity projects, and its Annual Exhibit in April.
