Henna Design and Tattooing


Check out the cool designs our local teens and tweens came up with for our Henna Tattoo program.  Henna has been used since the Bronze Age to dye skin (including body art), hair, fingernails, leather, silk and wool. In several parts of the world it is traditionally used in various festivals and celebrations.

Thanks to our volunteers Emily and Tirza for all your help!
