Woonsocket Radio News Room

Join our Lego Builder's Club at any time! No registration required. Just drop in and make creations out of Legos. We have a bucket filled with Legos and characters to build with here at the Woonsocket Harris Public Library on Saturday November 16th 1-2pm. We supply the Legos you supply the imagination. Your Lego creation will be on display in the children's craft room window until the next Lego Club meets. Great for ages 5 & up. Must be with an adult who stays in the room the entire time for safety as these are the small Legos.
