The event, lasting about an hour, will be based on a book about bridges and will explore the way different shapes are used in buildings in a hands-on practical activity.
Carol Whinnom of Museums Northumberland said: “These storytelling sessions are the ideal way to get families thinking about how bridges look the way they do.

Katy Wedderburn from Northumberland Libraries added: “We thoroughly enjoy welcoming the UCB Project when they bring sessions to the library and are very proud of the partnership that we have established.
“Due to their support, we have been able to offer a much broader range of free and engaging activities for children and families – attracting new members through our doors.
“The UCB Project’s sessions are educational as well as fun and perfectly complement the library’s ethos that everyone is welcome and that there is something for everyone.”
