Drop-in event. Looking for something fun to do - how about dropping by the library to grab an interactive kit that you can complete with your family and/or friends? Each month we will be putting together a different activity based on various topics. Sometimes crafty, other times delicious, and experiments may be included too - either way, these bags do not disappoint.
No sign up is required but kits are limited, so we ask that you only take 1 per family. Drop by to pick one up on this date while supplies last!
