Art Gym returns to the Oregon City Public Library on Saturday, October 17, from 10:00 a.m. to noon.

The open-studio arts and crafts program is led by local artist and crafting expert Melissa and is open to adults of all abilities.

The library supplies the materials, while participants bring the creativity.

The relaxed format makes this a good fit for both experienced crafters and people who simply want to try something creative.

The event takes place in the library’s Community Room.

Art Gym is one of those simple local programs that can turn a Saturday morning into something social and hands-on.

The Oregon City Public Library is located at 606 John Adams Street.
