Craft a heart

Join us for a creative, heart-filled afternoon. 

Come along for an ex voto heart embossing workshop with Adelle Frittitta, where you’ll craft a hand-made heart from aluminium foil, inspired by the centuries-old tradition of ex votos; symbols of gratitude, devotion and connection. 

Whether you’re celebrating Valentine’s, Galentine’s, or simply your love of libraries this Library Lovers’ Day, join us for a creative, heart-filled afternoon. 

Suitable for ages 15 and up. Tickets $8. Bookings essential. All materials are provided.
