For ages 6 and up.
Pizza and Fort Night
Friday, February 20 from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m.
Grab your blankets and flashlights...we're building forts in the library! We will start with pizza and apple cider and then participants can search for a spot among the stacks to build the ultimate fort with your blankets, sheets, and other items from home. Once your fort is complete, spend time reading, playing games, and taking a tour of other forts. Please bring fort building materials, which may include: blankets, sheets, table covers, and lights. We’ll have books, some classic games, and large clips for building.
