By Cotsen Children’s Library
Here comes 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 Robin Hood, and we plan to bring the medieval world to life in all its splendor and glory!
See period weapons in action, sample mead, storm a castle, test your survival skills in Sherwood Forest, illuminate a manuscript, meet live falcons, discover the science of stained glass, examine a longbow, explore an alchemist’s workshop, and rock out to musicians playing hits from merrie olde England!
We are delighted to announce that, in the spirit of Robin Hood, Labyrinth Books will be hosting a food drive table at Princyclopedia. We invite you to bring non-perishable food items that will be distributed to the Crisis Ministry of Princeton and Trenton (click here for a list of the most-needed items). Labyrinth Books is a year-round collection site for the Crisis Ministry, and we are proud to support their initiative. Thank you for giving.
