Junk Journal Circle

Create a junk journal at this hands-on crafting gathering at Codman Square. The project puts a playful, untidy spin on traditional bullet journaling, using everyday items that might otherwise be discarded—such as packaging, event tickets, and cereal boxes—as creative materials. Participants can bring a notebook and collected odds and ends, while the library supplies inspiration, conversation, paper scraps, magazines, collage materials, and tools.

The event is intended for adults and offers an opportunity to experiment with collage and personal expression rather than planning or organizing.
