Need help with math? Bard College math students are back to do fun math games and activities!

Come hang out with Bard undergraduates and other math enthusiasts to play games, solve puzzles, and work on some enriching problem solving based on an exciting mathematical theme!

This session's theme is: Number Theory: We will be doing an activity on number theory, and exploring primes and divisibility of numbers. We'll use patterns to be able to find factors of large numbers.

Grades: 5th-9th. Free. Contact library to register; walk-ins are welcomed. Happens in the East Room.

A youth musical jam session! Bring your own instrument (and any power supply/batteries and such) and let’s start making some music! We have an electric piano and a full drum-set on hand. This is an informal, fun way to make music together. Led by Program Coordinator, Laura.

This is not an instructional session; participants should have some skill with their chosen instrument(s).

For ages 10-17. No need to sign up, just come by! Happens on the Third Floor.

Laura has a musical background and has been performing for many years. Her music has taken her to many venues in NYC, the Hudson Valley, and beyond including: CBGB Lounge, Niagara Bar, Otto's Shrunken Head, Colony Cafe, Market Market, Bearsville Theater, plus, she has performed in clubs in France and Germany! She is a self taught, multi-instrumentalist who has been writing and recording music since the late 90s. She has performed and recorded with members of Mercury Rev and a song writer for the Ramones.
