Ages 11 - 18: Participants will create a story in three panels of a tunnel book box that is illuminated by a series of a LED lights to enhance the atmosphere of their story.

While gaining a deeper understanding of circuitry and electricity, participants will evolve their problem solving and problem finding skills to begin understanding how to engage an audience through visuals and storytelling. Participants will choose and create the story they tell in their own tunnel book box, with three layers of cut paper and a working series circuit of colored LEDs running behind. 

Participants may be recorded and/or surveyed to capture this program's effectiveness. Learn more about parent options at cuyahogalibrary.org/parent-options.
