Thanks to all participants and volunteers for this great event. We hope to continue to help support summer youth programs at the Library that benefit kids in Borrego Springs, Ocotillo Wells, Salton City, Julian and Warner Springs. All these back country communities rely on each other in hot summer months to find ways to beat the heat and enjoy our beautiful desert home.

New Road leads to the ArtFarm . . .
ROAD to the ArtFarm is ready for parking and connects the properties for easy access. Borrego Days Desert Festival spectators had prime viewing from the new road!
FESTIVAL PARKING! Get your prime viewing location along the parade route this year for Borrego Days Desert Festival. A new road is being constructed between The Mall and the ArtFarm. The road will connect the ArtFarm, Borrego Art Institute and the shopping complexes off the Circle with The Mall. This should help eliminate parade spectators parking parallel and blocking the view for others, by defining proper parking for maximized viewing of the parade entries as they pass along Palm Canyon Drive. Trees are being relocated. OCTOBER 2017
Library Crafts are Always Fun!
Diana Kumler led a screen printing class at the Borrego Springs Library Branch on Saturday, September 16th. Nearly 20 participants cut stencils, used provided designs, and learned to "pull ink" with squeegees through frames stretched with screen fabric. Everyone had a great time learning how the process works. Diana hopes to bring this class again in the future so we can bring our own tees and shopping bags to design!
Ellen from Graphics You Can Trust brought a couple of old screens from the 1990s that have a tiger and an alien design folks were interested in trying. Those old screens helped to make the process understandable because typically, a light-sensitive emulsion is painted on the screen and is 'exposed' with a film positive design laying on it. The design is then blasted out with water and openings are created for the ink to be pushed through.
HENNA tattoos were the 'draw' of the day at the Borrego Springs County Library Branch.
CRAFT Day at the Library is Wednesday! CLOCKWISE: Lani Mosquera and Martha Sanchez share their flower designs, Lani joins Travis Asche and Ulises Hernandez in building paper flowers, girls enter the community room and start folding tissue paper, Kristen McVey leads the session with Winnie Wind assisting, Careful cutting makes the prettiest flowers, Layering the tissue paper varies the colors in the flower.
