America turns 250 years old this year! Tweens and teens will create time capsules inspired by this milestone. Time capsules are a collection of everyday items, notes, or other materials that are meant to communicate with a future version of yourself or future generations. Make a one-of-a-kind box to store small items or use it for trinkets. This program is part of The Big Marion Read, a community-wide reading program that connects people of all ages with themed books, activities, and events. More information about The Big Marion Read can be found on the library's website, linked here. The Big Marion Read is made possible through the support of NEA Big Read, the Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Marion Public Library Foundation, and the Friends of the Marion Public Library. NEA Big Read is a program of The National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with Arts Midwest.
