STEM majors are challenging — and that’s exactly why they’re worth it. But success in science, tech, engineering, or math takes more than just good grades and late-night study sessions. Join us for a no-fluff presentation packed with real-world advice to help you not just survive, but thrive in your STEM journey.
Teens
Grab your dice and step into a world of adventure!
T(w)een DnD at the library is a chance to create a character, team up with other players, and dive into epic quests.
No experience necessary! All levels welcome.
**Parents/Caregivers need to pick up their child from the library promptly at 8 PM.**
You will create a unique fold‑out mini book built from a series of connected origami “squash folds.” Each folded square opens to reveal a larger panel, giving artists space to create individual drawings that expand outward like hidden pages. Once the drawings are complete, the folded units will be glued together to form a sculptural, interactive book that unfolds in surprising ways.
Teens! Using a needle and felting wool, design and create an artistic landscape or a 3D animal!
Program begins at 1pm in the Teen Lounge on the 2nd floor.
(they can stay as long as they like...just clean up)
