Illuminate, Craft and Create: Intro to Candle Making Workshop 
Join the Canmore Public Library and the Biosphere Institute of the Bow Valley on December 11th, 2023, 7pm-8pm for a cozy, DIY candle-making workshop with Esther Tie! This unique, hands-on Earth Talk offers attendees a chance to learn, create and take home their own DIY eco-friendly, customized scented candle. 

Attendees will:

• Discover the art of candle-making by creating their own hand-made, eco-friendly scented candle. Just in time for the holidays to give to a special loved one, or indulge in yourself! 

• Learn the difference between the types of waxes available, wick size vs. vessel size, and how to mix your own scents!

• We will also briefly discuss how DIY candle-making can be more sustainable, the ethics of using different ingredients, reusing containers and more! 

About the Presenter: 

Originally from Australia, Esther Tie is now a local Canmore resident who developed a love for making candles at home. She started out wanting to repurpose candle jars which developed into learning how to make my own candles instead of buying new ones.

This event requires registration and has a cost of $25 to cover the costs of your personalized, scented candle.
Only 15 spots are available - you must register through this Eventbrite link to confirm your spot.
