Kids and their grown-ups are invited to join us between acts of the CPL Music Fest to create a craft inspired by trends in the 1980s. Create something totally tubular, radically neon, or just plain righteous. Be inspired by 1980s flair. We'll also have tables set up if you would like to bring your own lunch and recharge for the afternoon music set.
