Lewiston Public Library plans to offer an interactive program where children use games, crafts, and creative STEAM activities to learn all about the cephalopods: octopus, squid, nautilus and cuttlefish. This program, Great Tentacles: Cephalopod STEAM, is part of its summer reading line up and takes place from 4 to 5 p.m. Wednesday, July 27, in Callahan Hall on 200 Lisbon St.
Great Tentacles will feature four different activities: Squid Racing, Cuttlefish Camouflage, Octopus Slime, and Nautilus Blow Painting. All families will leave with a free book about cephalopods and a gummy treat, according to a news release from the library.
Great Tentacles is free and open to all children 12 and younger and their families. No registration is required, and all supplies will be provided.
For more information, contact the library at 207-513-3133 or [email protected].
