Senior Adults

The library is bringing the wonders of the Houston Museum of Natural Science to you for one day only! Join us for special presentations by professional museum staff as they compare two prehistoric apex predators from the land and the sea!

Attendees will learn more about these ancient creatures with educational presentations and hands-on opportunities with museum materials.

Starting at 12:00pm, museum staff will give 30 minute classes throughout the day until 4:00pm. Presentations will be in the 1st floor Meeting Room. 

De-stress, unwind, and enjoy the almost-magical calm that comes from painting with watercolors.

Each week features a different theme -- we'll have some inspiration and supplies ready for you! But feel free to create something else if you'd like.

Want pointers on painting techniques? We'll do our best to help! But please keep in mind that this is not an art class -- it's a chance to be creative and relax while enjoying each other's company in an encouraging environment.

Nurture your strength and mental health with Tai Chi at Parker Williams Library!

Often described as 'meditation in motion', Tai Chi is a low-impact, slow-motion exercise that helps to strengthen your muscles and relax your mind.

Twist, tie, trim yarn scraps into pom-pom balls to make tiny faux cactus plants as a fun decoration for your desk or home.

For this month's Library Movie Nights, we are inviting families to join us to watch either Jurassic Park or Jurassic World. This fits the Summer Reading Program theme: Unearth a Story. Attendees will vote on one of the films, and we will watch the winning movie together. 

Popcorn and beverages will be provided, but feel free to bring their own snacks. Please be mindful about cleaning up after yourselves. Registration is required and space is limited.

**18 and Up Only**

Use a mix of fabric, paint, and notions to make a unique piece of art for your home.

**Please note that due to limited supplies, each patron will get to make (1) item.
