Jeri Zelinski Community RoomFor years, tales of gigantic serpents, terrifying tentacled beasts, and mysterious creatures lurking beneath the waves were told.
For years, tales of gigantic serpents, terrifying tentacled beasts, and mysterious creatures lurking beneath the waves were told. But what if many of these legendary “monsters” were just misunderstood marine animals. Participants will take a glimpse into the deep ocean waters utilizing interesting biofacts, drawing activities, and interactive slides to discover truth versus tale. This program does not include an animal encounter.
Recommended for children ages 6-12. Registration Recommended.
Funded by the Friends of the New Tampa Regional Library.
