Upcoming Events

STEAM Explorers Club is for 3rd through 6th graders who are interested in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, & Mathematics). Each week kids engage in a new and fun hands-on/minds-on activity exploring a wide range of subjects.

Bring the littles and come for a fun dance party and maybe a storytime!  We will dance to fun songs, use egg shakers, and dance with bubbles!

Visit the library on Saturday & create a terrific craft. All supplies provided! 

Using math and classic stage flair, young “Sci-gicians” will learn to read minds! With a simple dice-rolling trick, participants will amaze volunteers by magically revealing a final number—no peeking required. 

Explore what goes into making a tortilla! In this hands-on program, learn about the cultural background of tortilla-making as well as the physical and chemical changes that occur as the dough is formed, pressed, and cooked.

LEGO Free Play: Imagine and build with LEGO! Keep your engineering and problem-solving skills sharp using the library's LEGO bricks.

Beginner friendly computer-aided design (CAD) projects such as keychains and simple geometric models. 3D printing available during class. Open to all school aged children. No previous experience necessary. No reservations needed.
