Library to Host Family Science Program

Tompkins County Public Library invites parents to cultivate a lifelong love of science Sunday, November 8 as the Library partners with Cornell University’s Science, Engineering and Educational Development (SEED) program for a hands-on workshop about the physics of music and biological bonding.

Families with children ages five and older will learn about the physics of music and sound by making musical instruments. Participants will also have a chance to learn about biological bonding by making gel capsules and oobleck, a material with properties of both a liquid and a solid.

This free program begins at 2 p.m. in the Library’s Thaler/Howell Programming Room.
