FARMINGTON — Everyone’s Resource Depot announces the schedule for its July arts and crafts workshops. These programs are open to creative kids of all ages, and will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays during July from 3 to 4 p.m.

Each workshop will feature a variety of craft projects using scrap materials. Children will be assisted by student workers from UMF’s Upward Bound program.

Many sample projects have been constructed, and a great variety of inexpensive scrap materials such as leather pieces, paper of all kinds, fabric and yarn, wood turnings, wallpaper books, colorful foam pieces and beads are available.
