Please bring a sack lunch. The program will be held at the UT Arboretum Sharp Program Shelter, 901 S. Illinois Avenue in Oak Ridge. The event will take place rain or shine.
The cost is $30 for members of the UT Arboretum Society and $35 for non-members.
An adult may work together with a child to make two leaf prints at a discounted price of $50 for members and $55 for non-members.
The children will make a smaller version of the leaf print.
