Children's Library
Maker Space LabJoin us for a frosty, feathery art adventure! In this hands-on painting program, little artists will use forks to create beautiful, textured snowy owl masterpieces.
Let your little one's creativity soar with our Frosty Feathers program! Designed especially for toddlers, this unique art activity invites children to explore painting in a whole new way—using forks! With a little imagination and a lot of fun, kids will create their own textured, fluffy-feathered snowy owls, perfect for the winter season.
Young artists will learn simple techniques to make paint come to life, discovering how to use everyday tools to add texture and depth. As they dab, scrape, and 'fluff' their owls’ feathers, kids will also get a chance to build fine motor skills, boost confidence, and express themselves through art. Join us for a morning of creative play, snowy owl magic, and a little ‘hoot’ of fun!

Children's Library
The Hillary Rodham Clinton Children’s Library & Learning Center includes a computer lab with fourteen computers, teaching kitchen, large activity area, individual and group study rooms, theater, and community room in addition to a collection of more than 21,000 books, DVDs, and CDs.
In the 165-seat theater, children can experience all aspects of theater, including designing and building sets, writing plays, acting, and costume design. The state-of-the-art sound system, lighting, and projection screens is also be used for movies, concerts, and lectures.
The Children’s Library’s grounds are integral to the entire facility’s program. A greenhouse and teaching garden helps children learn about growing healthy foods as well as provide produce that are used in the teaching kitchen programs. The grounds reflect the topography of Arkansas’s ecosystems, from the native hardwood trees in the highlands to vegetation of the wetland areas, which are both planted and original to the site. Walking paths offer families an attractive place for exercise while learning the names of the trees and plants, and an amphitheater has seating for outdoor programs or nature watching.
