March Break is here and it is going to be an amazing week at the Thunder Bay Public Library. Today also marks the beginning of Daylight Savings Time so make sure to reset your clocks so you don’t miss out on any of the programs happening across all four branches of TBPL this week. A full listing of everything going on can be found online at www.tbpl.ca or by visiting your closest branch to speak with staff and check it all out.
In case you haven’t already planned out your week’s activities, here are some ideas to get you going:
On Monday afternoon there will be a new puppet show launched at the Brodie Library called Little Bunny Foo Foo. Join the Good Fairy as she flies through the forest making sure all the animals are safe. This event is open to all ages and will start at 2:30pm in the Story Hour Room (no registration required). If the children in your life are more into Pokemon than puppets, join the Pokemon Hunt at the Waverley Library. Create your own Pokeball and help us catch them before it’s too late. The hunt will be followed by other fun Pokemon activities. This event is for ages 5-10 and will start at 2:30pm in the Auditorium (pre-registration is required by phone, in person or online).
Calling all heroes to the Superhero Training Academy! Come practice your powers on Tuesday at the County Park Library. There will be fun activities, a super story and craft. Costumes encouraged. This event is for ages 3-6 and will start at 2:30pm (no registration required).
The Grumpy Grampas are back and holding a Family Concert in the Brodie Fireside Reading Room on Wednesday at 2:30pm. Every time the Grumpy Grampas perform, they bring loads of energetic fun to the room so bring your singing voice and your dancing feet! This event is open to all ages and requires registration by way of a free ticket. There are still tickets available to be picked up at the Brodie Library, don’t miss out on this free afternoon of great music and laughter.
Thursday is going to be a jam packed day with morning story times at both Brodie and County Park Libraries. The afternoon will feature a Forces of Science family program at the Mary J. L. Black Library. Join Science North and discover the fun of physics! Bring the whole family and engage with our hands-on activities that explore inertia, momentum, actions and reactions. This event is open to all ages and will start at 2:30pm in the Community Program Room (no registration required). Over at Waverley Library on Thursday afternoon, the highly acclaimed magician Tyler Biloski will amaze the audience with March Break Magic. This event is open to all ages and requires registration by way of a free ticket. There are still tickets available to be picked up at the Waverley Library.
For the young people between the ages of 12-18, Youth Move will be happening during its regularly scheduled hours at both Brodie and Mary J. L. Black Libraries this week. Stop by, get in the loop and see what you’re missing. On Tuesday night we have one word for you at the Mary J. L. Black Library - DRAGONS! Do you love stories about magic, royal intrigue, and fantastical creatures and settings? Come celebrate series like Throne of Glass by Sarah J Maas and Cinder by Marissa Meyer with crafts, activities, CAKE, and more! This event will start at 6:30pm in the Community Program Room (no registration required).
This is all just a sampling of what is happening at your library this week so come in, check it all out and join the fun for free.
