Face Painting

Face painting is always a hit at any kids events.  Super heros, princess, fairies, tigers and cats are all favorites.
Our little customers had the opportunity to attend a FACE PAINTING workshop, which took place here at Carnegie NL, as a part of the Summer Reading Program. 
They learned a fun way to dress up by painting their faces.
Aren't they beautiful with their painted faces?

Chromatography Butterflies

Chromatography (chroma means color, graph means write) is the scientific process of separating mixtures. Since many inks and markers are a combination of several colored dyes they can be separated using chromatography.

As a part of the Summer Reading Program, there was a Chromatography Butterfly workshop at Carnegie NL for our little customers. They really enjoyed the experience.

Thank you very much, Michelle


 
One day, Michelle Middleton, our Community Literacy Liaison, left behind her professional clothes and dressed as a gardener.
She took her garden-gloves and scissors, and went to the Carnegie garden.  There were a few flowering plants, and many bad weeds.
Ms. Middleton examined the situation, and agreed that the garden needed a very deep cleaning. She took her tools, and began removing weeds from around the plants.
The sun was shining brightly that July day, but nothing stopped her. Many hours after, Carnegie NL showed a nice and clean garden.
Thank you, Michelle!
