Animals such as kangaroo, monkey, lemur, bushbaby, African Serval cat, hedgehog, python, parrot, alligator, tortoise and New Guinea Singing Dog will be presented during the event. Some of the animals will be available for up-close viewing and petting as well.
The library’s One World Forsyth series offers a fun and entertaining way for children, teens, and adults to widen their worldview by learning about geography, plant and animal life, different cultural traditions, celebrations, games, and even different foods from all around the world. One World Forsyth programs will be hosted each month at one of the four library branches on a rotating basis.
“We launched the One World Forsyth series earlier this fall and have already presented programs for Native American Heritage Month and for the Hindu holiday of Diwali,” says Laura Bradley, Program Manager. “Our next events will include a celebration of Chinese New Year and a program for National Women’s History Month.”
All ages are welcome to attend “Animals Around the World,” but children and families will find the program especially entertaining. Participation is free and no registration is required.
