Updated for 2018
There are quite a few gingerbread house making events around Tacoma and Pierce County this time of year.
I like to highlight the free, gingerbread house making events at Pierce County Library branches because they’re FREE (Did I already say that?) and because some of them do require registration, and as you can imagine, spots fill fast!
Here are all the gingerbread house making events at Pierce County Library branches this season. They’re organized by date, and I’ve starred those requiring registration.
Registering for PCL library events is a teensy bit of a hoop jump. You go to the calendar, then you navigate to the date and find the event you want, and then you will see a spot to click on to register. Note a couple say Register And Drop-In. You DO need to register for these; on the day of the event the kids than drop in between two times.
We have SO MUCH holiday fun coming your way this month. Do be sure you’re following the site just as many ways as you can!
Read on for the whole round up of Gingerbread House Making events at area libraries. PS You can go to any of them. You don’t need a PCL card, and you don’t have to go to the closest one.
