Downers Grove Public Library

Kids Program Room

Meet and learn about common woodworking tools. Then get hands-on and use tools to build a wooden car.

The library's Building Operations manager brings tools out of the workshop to teach kids about woodworking. An adult is required to attend with the child and for safety we cannot accommodate younger siblings at this program.

Contact the Kids Room Desk at kidsdesk@dglibrary.org or (630) 960–1200 with questions.
