Suzan Richar is shown with three paper pinecones she made.

During the free Golden Afternoons program this coming Tuesday, Nov. 8 at 1 p.m. in the lobby at the Deane Center for the Performing Arts at 104 Main Street in Wellsboro, Suzan Richar will teach people how to use paper to make two different Christmas craft projects to take home. All materials will be provided free.

The first project is creating pinecones from paper and straight pins. The second is making a notecard with a colorful candle design using the iris paper folding technique.

Free refreshments will be provided. 

Anyone who is 55 years of age or older is welcome to participate. Each person attending is asked to bring a pair of scissors to cut paper.
