Kimball Library News 2/27/22

Let’s get moving!

Infants through age 4.5 with their caregivers are invited to join Judy Marden at the Kimball Library for a musical and energetic session of Zumbini. This involves moving, grooving, and growing for parent, caregiver, grandparent and child!

Created by Zumba® and BabyFirst for kids ages 0-4, the Zumbini® program combines music, dance and educational tools for 45 minutes of can’t-stop, won’t-stop bonding, learning, and fun!

Register for a grooving two week session. Classes will be held on Friday, March 18th and 25th at 10:30 AM.

YOUTH TERRARIUM WORKSHOP: Join us as we bring SPRING indoors early by learning how to make a terrarium with the ever-popular Felicia Motherway!

A terrarium is a miniature garden under glass that is fun and easy to grow.  Create your garden with easy care plants, moss, gens, shells and tiny woodland creatures…even fairy dust! The workshop includes all supplies, plants and glassware and you’ll have a beautiful terrarium to take home. There is a materials fee of $25.00 (cash or check) due upon registration.

This workshop is geared for grades K-6. Please register your kids at the youth circulation desk in the Children’s Room during regular library hours. Registration is non-refundable and must be paid to hold a seat. Cash or checks should be made out to Felicia Motherway.  We cannot take credit cards on her behalf and apologize for any inconvenience.

Sign up soon as class size is limited, and we are all longing for a little spring. This youthful and hopeful gardening event is taking place on Monday, March 28th, at 5:00 PM.

FIERCE FEMALES: Women have long been the subject of art, often depicted as nothing more than objects of desire. How do images of women change when women become the creators? This program examines the history of women in art in brief and then explores the lives, careers and works of several major women artists from the Renaissance to the twentieth century. Artemisia Gentileschi, Mary Cassatt, and Frida Kahlo are some of the artists discussed in this program.

Register in advance to receive the Zoom link for Thursday, March 31st, at 6:00 PM.
