EXPLORE CULTURES OF THE WORLD THIS SUMMER WITH THE DIDGERIDOO

Celebrate culture and summer reading as the Tompkins County Public hosts a fun-filled workshop on playing and making didgeridoos as part, Saturday, August 6 from 1:00 to 2:00 PM in the BorgWarner Community Room.

Participants of all ages are welcome to join Library staff as they learn about and make these aboriginal instruments, which are native to Australia, as part of their celebration of this year’s summer reading theme, “One World, Many Stories.”

This program is free and open to the public; however, materials for creating a didgeridoo are limited, so pre-registration is recommended.  No registration is necessary to learn about and listen to the didgeridoo performance, and attendees are welcome to attend the performance without attending the workshop.  To register, contact the Youth Services Department at (607) 272-4557 extension 275.

The 2011 Summer Reading Program is made possible with the support of the Gannett Foundation, the M&T Bank and by a grant from Federal Library Services and Technology Act funds.
