Program Description

Event Details

Lancaster Public Library’s Summer Reading Program is a community tradition that promotes reading for fun and lifelong enrichment. This summer, we will embrace the beauty of art in all its forms and create a colorful tapestry of experiences for everyone.

Become an engineer for a day when you attend our hands-on workshop! Create your own bridge using a variety of materials, engineering skills, and teamwork 🌉

  • Learn about balance, shapes, and teamwork.
  • Find out how much weight your bridge can hold!
    • Is it one of the strongest designs?  

This class is perfect for curious kids who love to build and want to learn how engineers design bridges in real life.

Ages 8-12* · Registration is recommended and opens on May 1

*Children under the age of 11 should be accompanied by a parent/caregiver for the duration of the program. Children between the ages of 11-12 should have a parent/caregiver in the library.
