The trombone and steel drums were favorites when North Valley Music School took over Whitefish Library’s portico for an Instrument Petting Zoo on July 28. Kids and adults tried stringed instruments, woodwinds, brass and percussion. And, especially in the case of the trombone, it was a blast.
There are more Summer Adventures to enjoy at the library in August. Game On!, game-playing sessions for elementary and middle-schoolers, continue to meet in the Depot Park gazebo every other Thursday, with the next session on Aug. 4.
