Mixed Media Making

Mixed Media Making is a weekly guided craft program at Portage-Cragin where teens 13 to 18 learn a new skill each session, from 3D sculpture tins and Perler bead magnets to Cricut tote design and hand-sewn felt ornaments. All supplies are provided, and participants leave with a finished creation each week. The Tuesday sessions run from 4:00 to 5:00 PM, with a break the week of Thanksgiving; the November 17 session focuses on mini paintings. No registration fee is mentioned, so it’s likely a drop-in program, though it’s worth confirming at the branch. Accessibility accommodations are available with two weeks’ notice by calling (312) 747-8184.
