The Camrose Public Library is running two free, staff‑led “For Cricut’s Sake: Greeting Cards” workshops at its makerspace on Tuesday, December 16, 2025 and Thursday, December 18, 2025 starting at 5:00 p.m., giving local crafters aged 16 and up a guided chance to design and cut custom greeting cards with the library’s Cricut machine.
The library’s event listing on the city calendar says each session runs about two hours, all supplies are provided, and registration is required by phone or email. The full event details are on the Camrose event page. Registration contact information listed is 780‑672‑4214 and cpltechhelp@prl.ab.ca.
The two scheduled dates turn what used to be informal meetups into structured workshops, making the Cricut and the makerspace equipment more accessible to hobbyists who want hands‑on instruction rather than a drop‑in session. The program is open to adults and older teens and follows earlier Cricut programming the library has offered, such as a paper lantern workshop in April 2024 and a “How to Design in Cricut Design Space” session in November 2024. Those earlier listings are available on the library calendar and show a pattern of recurring Cricut events at the branch.
Camrose County’s public events calendar also reposts the workshops to help reach residents across the region, though one county calendar view shows the December 18 session starting at 6:00 p.m. rather than 5:00 p.m. That discrepancy appears only in the county’s daily grid; the library’s detailed event page lists both sessions as 5:00–7:00 p.m. Interested participants should confirm the start time with the library when registering. The county calendar is available online.
The workshops are led by library staff (no instructor names are listed on the event page) and make use of the branch’s Cricut machine and makerspace resources, which the Parkland Regional Library’s Camrose branch lists among its services. The sessions are free of charge, and the listing explicitly invites people to “create a custom greeting card using a Cricut cutting machine,” — Camrose Public Library event listing — noting the program is for ages 16+ and that supplies are provided.
