From Books to Bonds!

Come to IRC for the books, stay for the friendships! Foundations of true friendships are like rocks; solid. Let’s enhance those IRC bonds by painting friendship rocks and exchanging them. In the process, we’ll spread kindness and positivity.

Please join me for dessert and rock painting. I’d love to get to know you and have some fun.

Let’s build that “Circle of Friendship!”


The above schedule can change at any time. We do our best to try to keep everything up-to-date as much as we can when sponsors or attendees cancel events and workshops.
