"The Building Blocks of Comic Creation"
This summer's program is an interactive storytelling show in which the audience helps me design a silly, zany comic strip. We will learn about the different ingredients that make up a comic or cartoon, and how those pieces come together! The program will address ideas like simple illustration techniques, communicating through art, and using sequential images to tell a story that is easy to understand.
The Providence Children's Film Festival summer program is much more than watching movies. After viewing an international short film, teen participants will learn about the language of film and participate in creating their own film project that shares their voices about how they might "build a better world". We hope to combine each participating library's teen film project into a collective film that showcases the many better world building ideas of youth across Rhode Island.
Bwana Iguana is an exciting and educational interactive program that introduces the audience to the mysterious realm of reptiles. It also promotes conservation, and understanding of the entire natural world. Hands on audience participation is encouraged, and it is always a FUN time.
Representatives from each of these town departments will be on hand at the library to share what they do. Ever want to get up close and personal with a fire truck? Or see the inside of a squad car? This is your chance to "touch a truck"!
An introduction to hand sewing. Tweens and teens will learn 3-4 basic embroidery stitches, then design their own piece of art using a light box, pens, embroidery hoop and thread. All materials are provided, and students go home with a piece of art and supplies to create more on their own.
Space is limited. Please register.
Approximately 15 students will perform, with parents and other relatives in attendance.
