The Creature Teachers animal ambassadors are back! The scaly, slithery critters (and their human friends) are returning to Klamath County libraries for our Summer Reading Program Performance Series.
Meet the Creature Teachers on Tuesday, July 19th at 2 pm at the Malin Branch Library, 2307 Front Street in Malin.
They’ll creep, slither and crawl their way over to the Klamath County Library, 126 S. 3rd Street in downtown Klamath Falls, on Wednesday, July 20th at 10:30 am. After the show, join us for lunch across the street at the Klamath County courthouse. (Performances at the downtown library will take place outdoors; bring a chair or blanket to sit on!)
They’ll also visit the Merrill Branch Library, 365 West Front Street in Merrill, later on the 20th at 2 pm.
The critters will round out their tour of the county on Thursday, July 21st, visiting the South Suburban Branch Library, 3625 Summers Lane in Klamath Falls, at 10:30 am.
The Creature Teachers are on a mission to educate through up-close-and-personal encounters with live animals, aiming to dispel the fear that some have toward reptiles, spiders, and other “creepy crawlies.” You can follow them on Facebook at www.facebook.com/pg/CreatureTeachersOregon.
This event is for all ages, but those under 10 years old need to be accompanied by a parent or guardian, please.
