With the end of the 2024-25 school year in Cobb County, Mountain View Regional Library has scheduled a slew of June events that will help parents, children, and even teachers realign or recoup. A handful of these events are rooted in Hindi culture, with respect to language, exercise, and meditation such as Hindi\English Bilingual Preschool Storytime, Bollywood Dance for Kids, and International Day of Yoga (with the non-profit organization, Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh).
On the creative art side of attunement, No More Liddering—and no, that’s not a typo—is scheduled to introduce kids (ages 6-11) to recyclable art. Also a non-profit, No More Lidder is based in Marietta and focuses on transforming hard-to-recycle plastics and single-use plastic lids into colorful art forms. And quite sizeable, too, based on images from the organization’s website.
Mountain View Regional Library is the hangout spot this June. Here are some other events scheduled for the summer recovery:
- Page Turners
- Morning Book Group, Wednesday, June 4th at 10:30 AM (Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen)
- Afternoon Book Group, Wednesday, June 4th at 1:00 PM (Barracoon: The Story of the Last “Black Cargo” by Zora Neale Hurston)
- Rosie’s Engineer Workshop, Saturday, June 14th at 10:30 AM
- Elementary Dance, Monday, June 16th at 2:00 PM
- Superawesome Superhero Bash, Thursday, June 26th at 2:00 PM
Please note Mountain View Regional Library shall be closed for Juneteenth on Thursday, June 19th.
As always, check out that book, and get your creativity on. Your brain will thank you.
