As part of its Summer Reading Program, the North Olympic Library System (NOLS) invites children in grades K-5, along with their families and caregivers, to take part in Discovery Club. Designed to inspire curiosity and creativity, the free program offers hands-on experiences in art, sewing, games and science.
Programs vary by location and are offered weekly in Sequim, Port Angeles and Forks and on select dates in Clallam Bay.
Highlights include guest appearances by author-illustrator Rachel Michelle Wilson, who will read from her book “To Catch a Ghost” before leading a drawing and storytelling activity, and the science-comedy show “Gravity Catastrophe!” with Alex Zerbe.
No registration is required.
