Pflugerville Public Library Has Exciting Virtual Programs In July

PFLUGERVILLE, TX —Though registration for Pflugerville Library's June Tween (ages 8 to 12) programs filled up earlier this week, along with spots on the waiting list, Tweens will have plenty of opportunities for library-related summer fun in July, according to Melissa Grzybowski, the youth services librarian/outreach coordinator.

According to Grzybowski, registration for the July Tween craft programs begins at 8 a.m. on June 21. The programs remain remote, but involve picking up materials at the library, which will be available June 29 to July 3. Instructional videos for the crafts are released each week on the library's YouTube channel.

Among the Tween craft programs in July are:

July 7: Tween Scene Online: Dinosaur Resist Painting

July 14: Tween Scene Online: Paint Your Own Ceramic Owl

July 21: Tween Scene Online: DIY Elephant Phone Holder

July 28: Tween Scene Online: Painted Constellation Wood Slice

Grzybowski said there also are several special programs in July for Tweens that will be open for registration later.

On June 21, registration opens for the Sweet Treat Workshop, where registrants will learn from Chef Juan of Cafe One about how to decorate sugar cookies using royal icing.

Registration begins July 12 for a Beginners Embroidery Workshop, where participants will learn basic stiches and then complete a final project.

Finally, there will be a virtual Yo-Yo Workshop for all ages that premieres July 15, and will be available online for two weeks. This workshop will be presented by Science of Spin's yo-yo champion Val Oliver. Registration opens on June 28, and the first 100 registrants will receive a yo-yo and a tip/trick sheet.
