Museum Sundays have returned to the Pitt Meadows Museum for the first time in 2023, with this Sunday kicking off the series of romantically themed crafts.

With February being the season of love, the museum has decided to involve this theme in all of its projects for the month.

“Best part, these crafts can be kept for yourself or given to someone you care about,” said the Pitt Meadows Museum. “It’s all about spreading kindness and appreciation this month.”

The first of the Museum Sundays, taking place on Feb. 5, is called Love, Love, Love.

It includes all of the supplies needed to make a Shrinky Dink keychain, which is a plastic sheet that participants can draw designs on before putting it in the oven to heat and shrink it to keychain size.

The next craft will be on Feb. 12, and is titled My Funny Valentines, with the goal of making some impressive valentines.

“Using glitter, glue, and a bit of imagination, you can make a card for someone you care about,” said the museum.

The following Sunday, Feb. 19, will not have a Museum Sunday due to the Family Day stat holiday.

The last Museum Sunday of the month, called All You Need is Love, will be held on Feb. 26.

This craft will have the necessary materials to make a small square pour painting portrait.

“This kit is popular, so come early to avoid disappointment,” said the Pitt Meadows Museum.
