    The event is open to ages 5-12 and there are different skill levels.

    The Corner Brook Museum and Archives is partnering with the Corner Brook Public Library on something you wouldn’t think would happen. On August 9th, there will be a Robotics and Electrics session at the Library. Museum Manager George French says they have ten spots or seats available. “They will be doing mini robots, some circuit boards to build machines and some advanced circuit boards,” he says. French says it made perfect sense for the museum and the library to partner on this event. “We always partner with the library and we were looking at what we haven't done, “ he says. “This was something interesting to partner on since some artifacts at the museum have the same concepts.”  The event is open to ages 5-12 and there are different skill levels. For more information or to sign up, call 634-2518.
