Summer Reading is in full
swing at Sterling Public Library. We
have lots of fun activities planned for kids of all ages this summer.
Each Monday at 2:00 p.m. we
will provide Dig Up Some Fun @ The Library.
During
the programs we will dig into a different adventure each week.
During
our first program on Monday June 3rd we will dig into
gardening. We will make an unusual
flower pot and insert our flowers.
We
will again have special rewards for kids participating in the Monday programs
and checking out a book. Each week that they attend one of the programs on
Monday they will also receive part to the book worm. It is not required that you attend every
week, but come as often as you can.
Registration is not required.
Each Tuesday at 3:00 p.m.
Sterling Public Library is again offering a special program for kids age 10
through 15 called Dig Deep Art Challenge.
This is an eight week program that focuses on different art techniques
each week. The program will last at
least 1 hour. These programs will be
more in-depth than the usual programs offered during the summer, teaching them
various skills and techniques needed to complete a project. You may attend any
or all of the programs. You must register for each program individually. Registration begins the Wednesday before the program. You may call 522-2023 to register. Classes are limited to 24.
The first Art Challenge will
be on June 4th. During our
first week we will be painting flower pots.
We will also learn a little bit about gardening as we plant vegetables
outside in the courtyard and flowers in our new pots.
On Wednesday, June 5th
at 7:00 p.m. we will Dig into Books by focusing on book illustrator Scott Nash.
Scott provided the artwork used for the Summer Reading Program. The program will be fun for kids of all
ages. Denise will be sharing some of the
books Scott has illustrated. We will
complete a craft related to one of Scott’s summertime books.
If you haven’t signed up and
started reading, be sure to come to the library and get signed up. As you keep track of the time you read
Sterling Public Library books, you will be earning prizes and working toward
attending the closing program. Be sure
to join us for a great summer!
