Clayton Emery Action Figures on Display at the Library

Visit the library this November to see custom action figures by local artist and author Clayton Emery. By reassembling, molding and painting existing figures, Emery creates brand new characters and demonstrates the power of imagination.

The library will also host a “Make Your Own Action Figure” workshop on Sunday, Nov. 23, from 2 to 4 p.m.

In this messy, hands-on workshop, artist Clayton Emery will help you design and create your very own custom action figure. Participants will remodel, paint, and embellish existing figures to form something entirely new.

Bring your own action figure or small doll, and your imagination! Other materials provided. Registration is limited to 12 people for each workshop. To register, visit the Youth Services desk or call 603 766 1740.
