SEUSS-ICAL CELEBRATION

Join our Seuss-ical celebration in honor of Dr. Seuss' birthday!

We're teaming up with The Lorax to celebrate Dr. Seuss’s birthday with weeklong fun!
March 1 – 9

Dr. Theodor Seuss Geisel spent a lifetime dedicated to the pursuit of learning through imagination. You're invited to celebrate the life and times of the literary genius who taught the world “the more you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn the more places you’ll go.”  One of Dr. Seuss’ most beloved characters, The Lorax, will be on hand to share in the celebration! His birthday falls on March 2.

SPECIAL EVENTS:

• The Lorax:  “I am the Lorax. I speak for the trees.” The Lorax will be stopping by to help you discover the wondrous works of Dr. Seuss. 
            Event Times: Thursday, March 1, 5-7 p.m.; Friday, March 2, 10 a.m.-1 p.m.; 
  Saturday, March 3, 10 a.m.-1 p.m.
