Here at the Mattapoisett Free Public Library, we are excited to announce a new program for teens, grades 6 to 12, called “STEAM Projects to Go”. STEAM Projects to Go are created for busy teens who still want to engage with library programming and their community. Each month there will be a new STEAM project and theme. This month’s project will explore Japanese culture and customs, food, and art. Further, it will inspire teens to take it one step further with a list of extension projects.
Each Steam Project to Go will include: supplies needed for the project, instructions, information about the theme, a library book related to the theme, and ideas for more projects. If you are interested in getting a STEAM to go project, register at the library’s website (mattapoisettlibrary.org) on the calendar or by calling the library. Registration is open until all slots are filled. Once you have registered, you will be contacted to arrange pick up (library card required).
Our Teen and Adult Summer programming, the MFPL Scavenger Hunt and Bingo, are still going on until August 28, so don’t forget to join in the fun! Each task you complete will earn you a raffle ticket. Each raffle ticket will be put towards our awesome prizes.
You can pick up the Scavenger Hunt List and/or the Bingo Sheet at the library at the side door entrance or on the library website, mattapoisettlibrary.org. The winners will be announced on Saturday, August 29. Keep us updated by emailing Michelle Skaar at mskaar@sailsinc.org with your name, contact information, and what task you’ve completed. Proof is not required, but highly encouraged! Remember to stay safe and practice social distancing.
Please contact Michelle Skaar at mskaar@sailsinc.org or call the library for more information. All programs are free and open to the public.
