Enjoy this lively and interactive presentation given by Gerry Aitken from the MFAH. As Gertrude Stein famously stated, "A rose is a rose, is a rose..." but is that the entire story? Is there more to discover? There certainly is! This presentation will reveal fascinating details about the artists who depicted still life images, their techniques and some surprising information about the floral works in the MFAH's collections. There will also be an interesting activity with a prize!
Let's taste test multicolor snacks to see if we can guess which flavor they are!
Ages 9-18

Join us for our 3D Printer Orientation!
This orientation session will introduce participants to 3D printing services in the library. Those who complete the class will then be able to request time to use a 3D printer at HCPL branches, at which time they will complete a short machine-specific orientation at the location of their choice. Attending this orientation is mandatory before patrons can request time to use a 3D printer.
