Travel and Mystery STEAM Program for Grades K-5


Please join us for our Travel and Mystery STEAM program for grades K-5 at the Cumming Library on Tuesday, March 26 from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m.

This program is inspired by the exciting mystery series, Greetings From Somewhere, by Harper Paris that takes place in countries all over the world. Get ready to explore Paris, Venice, Peru, Mumbai, and Alaska while we dig into history, art, architecture, and geography. We will learn about stolen art that has never been found, create mosaic artwork, track animal prints, identify spices, see how ancient monuments were built, and then design your own.
