Get ready to create, explore, and have fun!
Join us each month for our Kids Craft & STEM Days, designed especially for children in kindergarten through 5th grade. Participants will enjoy hands-on craft activities that spark creativity, plus one exciting STEM program each month where kids can experiment, build, and discover through science, technology, engineering, and math.
Do you have a child in kindergarten through 3rd grade who loves stories—or one who could use a little extra reading support? Harris County Public Library’s Book Buddies is a FREE, fun-filled literacy program that pairs enthusiastic, trained teen volunteers (our amazing Big Buddies) with younger readers (Little Buddies) for 9 weeks of reading adventures!
Reading Sessions begin: Mondays | 4:45 PM – 5:30 PM
Express Children's Theatre presents An Art Class for Kids with Frida Kahlo, commissioned by Rothko Chapel.

Learn about gardening with Texas native plants during an informational session presented by a Harris County Master Gardener. Plants that are native to a landscape range from trees to groundcover. They include shrubs, perennials, annuals, and water plants that will thrive in their native habitat. These plants can be used as hedges, specimen plants, or border plants. The formal landscaping of a traditional garden can be obtained using native plants. Join us on Thursday, September 24, at 2 PM.
