Come and Learn About the History of Henna Body Art!




Mehndi is the application of henna,a powder derived from a plant commonly found in the Middle East, to the skin to make intricate, beautiful and temporary designs. This ancient art originated in the Middle East, India, and parts of Africa. I will apply the temporary henna "tattoos" to volunteers and explain the cultural significance of this ancient beauty practice. Learn about Mehndi and try it out! I personally will be creating Mehndi designs just for you!

This event will be held on Tuesday, July 7th @ 4 p.m. and Saturday, July 11th @ 1 p.m. Be sure you register online here and fill out a parental consent form!

Hope to see you there
