      Description: The Friends of the Edison Public Library will present artist Nancy Leary’s interactive silk scarf workshop at Main Library (at 340 Plainfield Avenue) on Saturday, February 25, 2012, at 12:00 p.m. Attendees will have the opportunity to make a unique 60” scarf to match a favorite outfit or for a special gift using the beautiful ancient art form of “Ebru”, better known as marbleizing.
