Trash to Treasure:

A BACK-TO-SCHOOL TRASH TO TREASURE

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 11 AT 4 PM

Let’s play!

Around the World in 80 Minutes!

Wow! What a whirlwind tour! Our final Library Live program was a huge success! Over 200 children and adults set out on a 15-country tour. Passports in hand, they visited Bulgaria, Denmark, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Peru, Mexico, Scotland – and a host of other countries. 

Children and adults practiced using chopsticks. They feasted on Swedish meatballs, shortbread, samosas, guacamole, gelato, pierogis – and traditional foods from 15 different countries!  And, as always, we had many community participants who shared their cultural heritage with our very happy travelers.  Here are some pictures from the event:
