Join storyteller Portia Jackson as she shares stories of growing up camping throughout Indiana – highlighting native birds, trees, and plants.
Weaving in the elements of good storytelling, children will learn how to reflect on their own explorations through nature, visualize and act out their own experiences, and effectively tell their own stories. Portia Jackson is a teaching artist with Arts for Learning Indiana.
Please register individual children attending program, not adults.
Due to limited workshop space, we cannot accommodate camps and childcare groups at this program.
Built with funds from a $120,000 grant by the Andrew Carnegie Foundation, the East Washington Branch opened in 1911, six months before the opening of the city’s other remaining Carnegie Library, the Spades Park Branch. In 2017, a major renovation was completed to modernize the century-old building which is included in the National Register of Historic Places.
