Notes from the Recycling Bin

Did you know …

The Kenai Fine Arts Center has a great little gift shop with a wide variety of local crafts for sale. And on display in the KFAC Gallery this month is a wonderful display of our local wood turners creations, little platters to large vases, some of which are for sale too. So much talent! Support our local artists and buy local.
