T(w)een Scene

Spend your summer reading time with us!  Every Tuesday from 3-5pm, tweens and teens ages 10-17 are welcome to come hang out, make some art, do some dinosaur-inspired activities, eat snacks, and be yourself.

On the agenda:

June 9: Decorate your journal. Everyone who registers for Summer Reading gets a free journal, to "dig up" your own story!  Make it uniquely yours.

June 16: Dream catchers

June 23: Create a Time Capsule. Unearth your story in the future! Make objects that represent your today, write a bit about them, then bury them all in a jar for a future dig.

June 30: Patriotic pins and rock painting

July 7: Dino Dig. Hatch that dinosaur, name it, and write a story in your journal about it!

July 14: Personal Photo Frames. Tell your story in a photo, with a unique frame!

July 21: Game Day! If the weather cooperates, we'll play lawn games outside, with appropriate snacks.  We may even play some cornhole inside if the weather is gnarly.

July 28: Mosaic Tile Stepping Stones. Create a fun stepping stone with broken pottery and pizzazz! PLEASE NOTE: This project may take considerably longer to complete. You'll need to come back for your stepping stone after several days of drying, if you're not brave enough to take home a pie pan of wet cement.

This event is supported by the State Library of Ohio with federal funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
