LIBRARY TO HOST FAMILY SCIENCE PROGRAM

Families can share a love of science and turn trash into treasure Saturday, January 22 from 1:00 to 2:00 PM, as the Tompkins County Public Library and Cornell University’s Center for Materials Research presents “Families Learning Science Together:  Gadgets from Garbage.”

Participants will experience the challenges and rewards of engineering with recycled materials by transforming scrap items into functional gadgets or kinetic art. 

Families Learning Science Together is a monthly program which encourages families to share a love of science and learning through fun, hands-on activities. 

The program is free of charge and will be held in the Library’s Thaler/Howell Programming Room.  Participants are encouraged to pre-register by contacting Kevin at outreach@ccmr.cornell.edu or call 254-8256.
