The LA County Library website will undergo scheduled maintenance on Tuesday, December 2 from 7 am to 9 am. During this window there may be a brief period of downtime.
Join us with artist Miriam Quezada as we discover the ancient Mexican folk art of tin embossing or "repujado." This special workshop will cover techniques for engraving or "pushing out" drawings on metal to create beautiful artwork. For adults.
All materials will be provided. Attendance is limited and advance registration is required. To sign up, see library staff, or register online.
This program is part of the La Mirada Celebrates! series. Cultural and holiday celebrations bind families, neighborhoods, and communities together.

La Mirada Library was established in 1915 in a one-room schoolhouse that belonged to the Norwalk School District. It soon received supplemental service from the Los Angeles County Library.
From 1958 to 1971 the library was housed in a leased storefront in the La Mirada Business Center. The present library building was dedicated on July 1, 1971, in the La Mirada Civic Center.
