Past DIY Nights have included ClaySculpture, Jewelry Making, Duct Tape Art, Chocolate Festival, Painting, SpaNight, Origami, Smoothies, Taco Night, and many more! Movie nights include free refreshments. Grades 6-12
Readers' Theater
Grades 6-12: Our summer theater group meets weekly in July to put on a performance for the Children's Summer Reading Club in August. We usually perform a readers' theater version of a favorite children's picture book. Since our plays are readers' theater, memorizing lines is optional. We make all of our own props, scenery, and costumes during the summer and have a great time!
Look in our Teen Summer Reading Club handout/calendar in June for our first meeting date of the summer.
