A highlight will be a ‘fur, feather and scales’ workshop presented by Emma Best from Newcastle Museum.
The hands-on educational workshop involves interaction with real stuffed Australian native animals.
Participants will be able to download a face-swapping app and take a selfie with their favourite Australian animal.
Local young inventors will have the opportunity to turn their ideas into reality and build a Rube Goldberg machine.
Students will explore scientific principles through building wacky contraptions out of everyday objects to perform a simple task.
NAIDOC Week celebrations are also planned for both libraries, including Aboriginal art and basket weaving workshops, as well as sharing Dreamtime stories.
The great annual Cessnock City Library Lego brick building competition is on again and this year is about recreating your favourite story or song in bricks.
Entry forms are now available at the libraries.
Places are limited; call Cessnock City Library on 4993 4399 or Kurri Kurri Library on 4937 1638 for more information or to secure a booking.
