“Arrive ten minutes early to grab a parking spot close to the entrance.”
Building Club is a free, self-directed construction program for children at the Southgate Community Library in Raleigh. Kids can use the library's collection of LEGO bricks, Keva planks, and other building materials to create whatever they imagine. This program is designed for children from preschool age through fifth grade, making it an easy option if you have kids in different age groups. There is no cost to attend, and registration is not required. The library has a dedicated parking lot, so you will not have to search for a spot or pay for parking. It is a low-pressure way to transition into the weekend. Your kids can burn off some creative energy after a long school week while you enjoy a quiet indoor space.
