Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Patrons will learn the art of basic knot tying in macrame. Patrons will gain a new interest in making macrame and other handmade arts. Patrons will see the library as a source of programming that is both educational and entertaining. Participant evaluations and anecdotal responses will be collected.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Patrons learned the basic knot tying art of macrame. Since we had a small class size the patrons had the opportunity to make either a wall hanging or a piece of jewelry and most patrons chose to do the jewelry. One patron who attended was also a jewelry designer but had never learned the art of macrame so they really enjoyed learning something new. All patrons enjoyed the morning class!
