Junk Journaling

Date: Wednesday, June 24, 2026
Where: Johnston Recreation Center
Time: 5-6:30PM

Got old magazines, random stickers, cool packaging, or paper scraps you just can’t throw away? Perfect. Let’s turn that “junk” into art! Join us for a hands-on Junk Journaling class where you’ll create your own personalized journal filled with layered collages, doodles, quotes, memories, and creative vibes. Junk journaling is all about mixing recycled and everyday materials to design pages that tell your story — your way. You will be able to: -Pick a theme, -Layer paper, washi tape, fabric scraps, and stickers. -Add song lyrics, poetry, affirmations, or your own writing. -Experiment with color, texture, and different page layouts. There’s no “right” way to do it… it’s all art. No experience needed! All materials will be provided, but feel free to bring small paper items (photos, ticket stubs, notes, etc.) you’d like to include. Come hang out, get creative, and leave with a journal that’s totally one-of-a-kind — just like you!
