Thanks to Samantha Carpenter for this blog post!

I did a passive program called Henna Hands in conjunction with a book display based on our bibliography One World, Many Cultures. It didn’t attract a ton of participants over the 3 weeks it was out (27), but I thought some of the results were pretty beautiful.

I used a hand template off the internet and provided some sample designs. Don’t you just love the way a bunch of hands look displayed together? It always warms my heart. Hope it warmed the hearts of a few teens, too–or a few of you!
