It's almost time for another Black History Month program here at the library! Next week's Homeschool Hub is focusing on Black Inventors. Learn about Garrett Morgan (inventor of the traffic signal and lots of other cool stuff) and James Hemings (a formerly enslaved man who was the first American to train as a chef in France and popularized ice cream in the country's early days), then work on projects inspired by their contributions to society. The session will be next Thursday, February 10, 2022 at 10:30 a.m. (notice that it's in the morning, which is different from some of our previous sessions) and is open to students in grades K-8. Registration is required. Sign up online or by phone (205-444-7830) beginning 02/03/22.
And don't forget to take part in our Black History Month Book Bingo reading challenge! Need help finding books? Check out our display along the starred hallway!
