Just like a regular book club, you'll read on your own time. Then we'll meet weekly to walk in the park while we discuss our book! 

We'll meet Tuesday mornings at 10:00, at the North end of Entiat City Park, near the playground. Wear good walking shoes and dress for the weather. 

All participants will need to sign a liability waiver at the first meeting.

This series will include Lego WeDo 2.0 coding, MakeDo engineering and Paper Circuits.

Jan 4: WeDo 2.0 - Come design, build, and program your very own robot using LEGO's WeDo 2.0. We will explore, create, and share our scientific discoveries, as we build, program, and modify projects, engage with science, engineering, technology, and coding.

Feb 1: Paper Circuitry- Put your electrical knowledge and skills to use in this hands-on activity that teaches how to complete a functioning circuit.

March 1: MakeDo Construction - Enter the world of engineering through the creative world of MakeDo. MakeDo is a cardboard construction kit that teaches through play to see the world not as it is but as it could be. Gather up your recycled cardboard boxes and join us on an engineering adventure that brings to life what you can imagine.

How do we have difficult conversations?

Too often, the way we engage with our friends and family about issues of race and other "isms" reinforces the very biases and systems we are trying to change.

Join us for an interactive overview of seven norms for engaging in a way that creates space for difficult yet empowering conversations. Participants will have the opportunity to reflect on what is challenging and commit to practical action steps. This session will provide a strong foundation, equipping us all with helpful tools for continuing to build relationships while engaging in difficult conversations.

This is the fourth event in a series of four workshops led by Richard Kim from Cultures Connecting, a non-profit organization that provides culturally relevant professional development, consulting, coaching, and one-on-one diversity leadership support to organizations and communities. Richard brings nearly a decade of professional experience with a person centered approach to engaging race, culture, and identity in various non-profit and education settings. Most recently, Richard worked as the Intercultural Credibility Coordinator/Consultant at The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology, where he also received his M.Div. Richard also holds a B.S. from the University of Minnesota. As a person born in the United States to parents who emigrated from South Korea, Richard brings an uncommon voice to the work of racial equity.

Any participation in NCW Libraries programming, both in person and virtual, must abide by the NCW Libraries Code of Conduct.
