Library - What's the Buzz

During the month of August we invite you to create art on the sidewalk around the Library! No registration required. Just grab some chalk and make some art!

Following the high school exhibit, the Second Story Gallery is featuring an equally impressive collection from our middle school art students at Liberty, Odyssey, and Skyridge Middle Schools. This showcase provides a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the budding talents of younger artists and encourages their continued artistic growth.

The exhibition is open to all ages and runs from August 1-31, 2025.

Saving planet Earth together can be loads of fun! Join us to play games, solve puzzles, and tackle wacky challenges. The whole family will enjoy exploring the environment, designing solutions, and imagining a brighter future. Let’s do this!

The Power Play for the Planet program is targeted for a family audience with children in grades 1-5 and is presented by a museum educator. The program includes a short and lively presentation (20-25 minutes) followed by activity tables offering a variety of fun, hands-on activities.
