Reptile Shows of New England Visits the Carnegie Library

They're cold blooded, catch it and see! Ever wondered what it feels like to come face-to-face with a giant snake, a spiky lizard, or a reptile you've never even heard of before? Join us at the Carnegie Library for an exciting, hands-on reptile adventure featuring 15+ reptiles from around the world. You'll have the chance to meet these remarkable animals up close, learn about their habitats and behaviors, and discover what makes each one unique. Designed with teens and tweens in mind, but reptile fans of all ages are welcome.
This program is supported by grant funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services as administered by the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners and the Library Initiative for Teens and Tweens.
