About the event

Do you know Oscar the Grouch from Sesame Street? If so, guess what?! You're invited to his (belated) birthday party!

Youths ages 5-11 can celebrate by joining Ms. Natalie for some crafting: make your own Oscar the Grouch puppet, create your own pet worm (like Oscar's pet worm, Slimey), or design a birthday card for Oscar! Gummy worms (in honor of Slimey) will be provided as a snack, too. Although we won't be celebrating on Sesame Street, we are sure to have a great time at the library!

Registration is required.

If you have any questions, please contact us @ 919-560-8592.
