Chewonki presents BIOMES

Chewonki presents Biomes, an interactive natural history program on Tuesday, August 23, 2022, 2:00-3:00 pm at the Deering Memorial Community Center, 39 Main St., South Paris, Maine. This program is free to attend and suitable for all ages, especially children and their families.

A biome is a large area characterized by its plants, soil, climate, and wildlife. This program explores biomes from forests to deserts and grasslands to oceans and how they are affected by the changing climate.

Chewonki is based out of Wiscasset, Maine. Its mission includes teaching appreciation and stewardship of the natural world. Interactive traveling natural history programs are presented by science educators and are appropriate for all ages.

Four area libraries: Hamlin Memorial Library, Norway Memorial Library, Paris Public Library, and West Paris Public Library, through a grant secured by the Maine State Library, offer this end-of-summer enrichment program to local and visiting children and their families.
