July is National Ice Cream Month...learn about the science of ice cream and make a fun ice cream craft.
I scream...you scream...we all scream for ice cream! It's summertime and what better way to celebrate the season and beat the heat than to stop by the P.D. Brown branch and pick up a cool take & make kit? Each kit will explore the science and history behind America's favorite frozen treat. And, each kit will include instructions and supplies to make an ice cream craft masterpiece. No registration required. Kits will be available while supplies last.
Kits can be picked up during regular business hours at the P. D. Brown Branch. Curbside pickup is also available upon request. To make a curbside request, please call the P. D. Brown Library at: 301-645-2864. One hour advance notice is needed for curbside kit requests.
After enjoying your kit, please take time to fill out our online Program Survey (a mobile friendly version can be found here) so we may better serve you. We encourage participants to share their finished artwork by sending a photo to: pdbrownref@ccplonline.org.
Charles County Public Library events are accessible for all. If you have an accessibility request, please contact programs@ccplonline.org three business days prior to the event.
