Located on the fourth floor of the Central Library, this space invites children and students to learn about Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math through hands-on experiences. Programming events targeted toward upper elementary and middle-school aged students include circuits, robotics, augmented and virtual reality, coding, 3D printing, recording in the audio booth, and so much more.

The William Stamps Farish Fund Theater is a state-of-the-art facility in one of Main Street’s busiest places.

Fully renovated and updated, the theater on the Central Library’s first floor is home to theater, dance, live music, film, community events, and meetings. The Lexington Public Library makes the facility available at some of the city’s best prices, with affordable business, nonprofit, and government rates.

Eastside Branch - Makerspace

Fauna is wildlife native to an area, so we'll be watercolor painting creatures native to Kentucky. I'll have references of many of KY's native creatures, and I'll demonstrate a few techniques that may be useful to you, like wet-on-wet and how to paint fur, and then we'll make a watercolor painting together! 13 and up, please.
