Marimo moss plant in a clear tank

Looking for a fun decoration for your living space? Try crafting an artificial marimo!

Did you know:

Though marimo is a form of algae, these moss balls are popular low-maintenance houseplants known for their resilience and longevity. University Libraries hopes that this craft can serve as a reminder of your own resilience as you work through the semester and encourage you to turn it into a functional piece by storing notes inside to look back on as you create lifelong memories this year!

This event is recurring on Tuesday, August 24, 2021, Wednesday, August 25, 2021, Thursday, August 26, 2021, Friday, August 27, 2021 and Saturday, August 28, 2021.
