I scream…you scream…we all scream for ice cream! It’s summertime, and what better way to celebrate the season and beat the heat than to stop by the P.D. Brown branch and pick up a cool take & make kit? Each kit will explore the science and history behind America’s favorite frozen treat. And each kit will include instructions and supplies to create an ice cream craft masterpiece. 

Kits can be picked up during regular business hours at the P. D. Brown Branch. Curbside pickup is also available upon request. To make a curbside request, please call the P. D. Brown Library at 301-645-2864. One-hour advance notice is needed for curbside kit requests.

After enjoying your kit, please take time to fill out our online Program Survey (a mobile-friendly version can be found here) so we may better serve you.

We encourage participants to share their finished artwork by sending a photo to: pdbrownref[at]ccplonline[dot]org.
