Hang out with creative animal lovers and have some fun while helping homeless animals at Scrapbooking and Stamping Day.

The event will be in the former Claire’s shop near the center court at Northbridge Mall on Saturday, from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m.

A donation of $25 includes lunch, snacks and some supplies. Additional items will also be available for purchase. All donations and proceeds go to the Freeborn County Humane Society’s 2-for-1 Fund, so every $25 donation gives the Humane Society a total of $75.

The event will be hosted by Karen Meyerson, who formerly owned The Stamp Studio in the Albert Lea Art Center.
