Surprise, June is here! To lament or celebrate the passage of time, soak up some events in the neighborhood this weekend. Upgrade your glassware and create something uniquely your own during workshops at CIBONE at 12 and 3 p.m. During the session, you’ll be instructed on how to engrave your own one-of-a-kind drinking glass or plate with an electric tool either using a provided template or freestyling with your own design. Kids over 7 are welcome, but all under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
