Sunday, June 1”Spanish Colonial Tin Punch Workshop 12 noon to 4pm at
the Visitor Center
Petroglyph is pleased to announce experienced tinsmith Jason Younis y
Delgado as the workshop instructor. A Santa Fe native, Jason learned
the art of tin punching from his grandmother Angelina Delgado Martinez.
Today, he continues the craft of five family generations, participating in
local and regional shows and craft fairs.
Most of Jasons tools were given to him by his grandmother but he also makes punches to reproduce the designs of 17 th century Spanish Colonial tinwork. Jasons designs, incorporating his own unique imagery, are drawn from traditional family patterns and historical Spanish Colonial tinwork. Workshop fee of $75.00 includes all materials and personal instruction. Workshop participants get to keep their completed pieces. Advanced registration is required. Call 899-0205 x331 to

We are going to review what are called Advanced Reader's Copies; these are not available for sale yet, but that's one of the perks of joining the club, you get to read it before it hits the shelves! Join us to become book reviewers! For this first meeting , bring a pillow to sit on and join us in the children's section to help organize this club and to pick your first book to read and review!
Never to Young for a Book!
We invite you to come to the store to register to win a very fun, round, book bag with Begin Smart titles for babies tucked inside. It would be a great gift for your own baby or a shower gift if you are the lucky winner. There are many titles in this developmental line of books for babies and toddlers.
Keep in mind....
- We stock 2009 Battle of the Books titles.
- If you need a birthday party gift, consider our autographed books
- If you're looking to fill your summer reading with the work of one author, peruse our series shelf
