1. Marshmallow Peeps Nest STEAM Challenge (Shrewsbury)
In this delicious STEAM challenge kids in grades 2-5 will use their creativity and problem-solving skills to build a cozy and safe nest for marshmallow Peeps!

2. 🐟 Help Stock Trout in Worcester 🐟

4. Henry the Juggler (Westborough)
Come be amazed by Henry the Juggler and his zany attempts to defy the laws of gravity. He juggles any number of balls, clubs, rings, members of the audience . . . He balances strange items on the tip of his nose. Everything is accomplished wordlessly as Henry uses body language (and road signs!) to express himself. Caution: Henry is known to use innocent bystanders in his act. This show is supported in part by a grant from the Westborough Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency. Friday, April 25th from 2-2:45pm at the Westborough Public Library. Best for ages 4 and up. Preregister. Free.
5. Family Makerspace (Shrewsbury)
Take part in this series of low-tech STEAM programs geared to families. We will provide the prompts, materials, and equipment to encourage hands-on learning, creativity, collaboration, problem-solving, and more! Saturday, April 26th from 2-4pm at the Shrewsbury Public Library. Drop in. Free.
