Family and Friends Jigsaw Puzzle Time
Jigsaw puzzle time at Villard Square Branch, May 30 from 2 to 4 PM. Bring family and friends for some light refreshments.
Second session of Lynden's raft-building pond camp for kids 6–11. Same curriculum, different week. July 20–24.
Lynden added this second Pond Voyage session after the first week filled quickly. The curriculum is the same: kids 6–11 spend five full days (9am–4pm) studying aquatic insects, building floating sculptures and working rafts, learning batik-dyeing, and keeping pond journals. The week ends with a raft sail across the pond. Science, craft, and outdoor adventure in a single camp.

A perfect family outing at the Milwaukee Art Museum's Kohl’s Art Studio. Each month brings a new art project inspired by the museum's collection, offering a hands-on creative experience. Admission is free for kids 12 and under, making it an accessible and fun way to spend the day. Plan to explore the museum after your art session.

Kick off the summer with a family-friendly event at the Central Library. Kids and teens can enjoy hands-on activities and special exhibits. It's a great chance to explore different areas of the library and engage with local museums and centers. Arrive early to register for the summer reading program.
Due to the popularity of this camp, we are resetting our sails and charting a second voyage this summer. Dive into the world of aquatic insects to explore buoyancy, surface tension, and propulsion. Inspired by this knowledge, we'll construct floating sculptures as prototypes for the full-sized rafts that will carry us across the pond at week's end.
