Know-How: Winterize Your Home

Sure, you learned about fluid dynamics, ancient religions, statistics, personality disorders and the history of Russia in college. But where are you supposed to learn how to maintain your car or paint a room or fix your clothes? Join ArtHaus and Decorah Public Library for KNOW-HOW, a new monthly series of hands-on workshops to learn all the stuff you’re “supposed to know by now.” 

Registration required at: https://www.decorahlibrary.org/events/know-how-winterize-your-home

We’ll gather on Saturday, November 14 at 2 PM at ArtHaus to learn a new skill in a welcoming environment designed to build a community of learners. 

November’s KNOW-HOW will focus on winterizing your home to keep those skyrocketing energy prices at bay! Winneshiek Energy District is going to teach us how to keep out drafts, insulate hot water pipes, and adjust our thermostat settings. And we get to use spray foam!  

No more dealing with YouTube ads as you’re trying to figure out what kind of insurance you need or sheepishly asking your dad how to change a tire at 3 AM. In the middle of nowhere. While it’s raining. Grow confidence in your skills, ask questions, make mistakes, and learn something new at KNOW-HOW!

Space is limited. Please register in advance at decorahlibrary.org. If you have questions or an idea for a future KNOW-HOW workshop, please contact Zach Row-Heyveld (zrow-heyveld@decorahlibrary.org) or LeRoy Smith (leroy@arthausdecorah.org), Executive Director at ArtHaus.
