Calling all budding poets: you're invited to our Green Poetry program for kids on Wednesday, April 18 at 7 p.m. This fun program of poetry, movement and art will be led by local poet Rosanne Singer, who works extensively in schools all over the area, connecting kids and poetry. April is Poetry Month and, with Earth Day (April 22) approaching, our Green Poetry program will celebrate our own Sligo Creek, and especially its wildlife. Using an African folk poem, Dance of the Animals, kids will create their own local folk poem with words and movement. Kids also will use recycled materials to make simple art. The program is free, and open to kids ages 5 up. Registration is required; to register, please go to Program Registration - Takoma Park Maryland Library or call us at 301-891-7259.
