Silver City MainStreet/Arts & Cultural District is partnering with the Future Forge and various community groups and artists to offer an arts and cultural experience to residents of Grant county. Make-and-Take activities will be from 10 am to 2 pm every Saturday at the Maker’s Market at Main Street Plaza, May through October. 

Have you wondered what Girl Scouts is about and if it is for a girl in your life? Come to the Girl Scout make and take booth at the Makers Market, September 25, 2021, from 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM to learn what Girl Scouts is all about. Local Girl Scouts will be on hand to make Good Deed Beads and explain what some different kinds of Good Deeds are, such as holding a door for someone, picking up trash, set the table for dinner, and more. The key is doing something nice for someone else without being asked.

Girl Scouts is open to any girl going into kindergarten - 12th grade. What can Girl Scouts do during COVID-19 you ask? Girls are invited to join our virtual troop meetings, program challenges, make new friends, and inspire others. Girls can join in the virtual fun for FREE- and join a troop in person at a later date. Stay active, make new friends, and have fun from the safety of your home!

Girl Scouts is the safe and obvious choice for families today to keep girls connected to friends and their communities. Girl Scouts offers exactly what parents want for their daughters: to learn good citizenship, involvement in and giving back to the community, gaining courage, and a girl-led program that is not narrow or limiting. Since 1912, Girl Scouting has been the preeminent girl-led organization building girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. For more information about opportunities for older girls, please contact us at info@gsdsw.org or (915) 566-9433
