Princyclopedia 2011: The Lightning Thief

By Cotsen Children’s Library
PRINCYCLOPEDIA 2011: THE LIGHTNING THIEF
Get ready to, like, totally GREEK out! It’s time for Princyclopedia, Cotsen’s huge, annual event where we bring a book to life through a multitude of hands-on projects, activities, live shows, and demonstrations.
This year’s book is The Lightning Thief, and we promise to do it justice. Step into Medusa’s lair, talk tactics with Greek warriors, taste nectar & ambrosia straight from Olympus, take a ride (literally!) on the Minotaur, enjoy a “Pegasus-eye” view of Princeton, and adventure in the amazing world of mythology, magic, art, history, and clashing titans of Ancient Greece!
SATURDAY, APRIL 9
10:00am – 3:00pm
No registration required
Open to the public and free of charge
Event occurs at Dillon Gym on the Princeton University campus. Free parking available nearby. For details visit: www.princeton.edu/princyclopedia
