Thanks to some pretty cool collaborations, summertime activities at Perry Memorial Library are really heating up.
Whether you’d like to learn more about virtual reality robots or falconry, or if you just want to chill out watching a fun movie, there’s something coming up just for you, and Youth Services Librarian Melody Peters has all the details.
For kids 8 years and older, there also are STEAM activities planned, courtesy of Goodwill Industries of Eastern North Carolina.
In fact, there’s a session later today – from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. – to learn more about 3-D printing. Future sessions, also from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m., include catapult building on Tuesday, July 14 and mini-robotics on Tuesday, July 21.
Want to learn more about falconry? Come to the library gallery at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, July 14 and learn about the ancient art that involves training birds of prey from master falconer Chip Gentry. He works with Hawk Manor Falconry in Lillington. He’s bringing some amazing birds that you’ll get to see up close and personal.
Come to the library on Tuesday, July 7 to catch the movie Hoppers at 10:30 a.m. Super Mario Galaxy will be shown on Tuesday, July 21. Feel free to bring your own snacks to enjoy while you watch the movie, Peters said.
And, of course, the summer reading program is in full swing, so remember to read, read, read! Come stock up on reading materials for the long holiday weekend – the library will be closed Friday through Sunday, July 3-5.
