The program is for children ages 5 and up, and registration is required, according to the library’s event listing.
What to expect
Presenters Mike and Roberta are returning for another “Dinovember” program. They will talk about how they became interested in science and what the work of a scientist looks like. The show features an Albertosaurus skull, a smaller relative of Tyrannosaurus rex, along with audience participation, a touch of magic and show and tell with rare fossils.
