For All Ages ( under 6 accompanied by an adult or teen )
Watch recent launches on the big screen in the basement at Latham Library with your hosts, Solar System Ambassador Cynthia Shelton, Planetary Scientist Tara Tomlinson, and Librarian Emily Zollo.
Think like a rocket engineer as you build your perfect individual space cabin using cutting edge tools like … scissors. The cabins will be used to create full space rockets, which will be on display at the library for a month and then you can take your piece home. See the sample rocket that is currently at the library front desk. It is featured in the Shelter in Space video, which explains everything if you are still confused. Find it by googling “Shelter In Space Shelton NASA” on YouTube.
Bring stickers, hardware, and other bits and bobs to add to your creation and share with the group. Other materials will be provided. Please register with the library to reserve a space – in Space – by emailing librarian@thetfordlibrary.org. Note: Papier mache and paint can be messy, so wear old clothes.
