What's Happening At The Cinnaminson Library: June 24-28, 2019
A look at some upcoming events at the Cinnaminson Library.

CINNAMINSON, NJ — The following is a look at some upcoming events next week at the Cinnaminson Library:
Monday, June 24:
Make and Take Mondays! Kids ages 4 to 12 are invited to pop into the library at any time on Mondays to create a craft that is out of this world based on the library’s summer theme A Universe of Stories! The program kicks off on Monday with Paper Plate Flying Saucers- Take this craft to your leaders, it is so cute they will want to see it.
Hocus Pocus-The Magic of Ran'D Shine, 2 p.m. to 3 p.m.: "Hocus Pocus: The Magic of Ran'D Shine" is a peek into the secret world of magic, where objects appear, disappear and transform! Part magic, part silliness but overwhelmingly entertaining, this visually stunning and humorous magic show draws from Mr. Shine's mastery of sleight of hand, storytelling and his playful interaction with his audience. It's more than just a show; it's an experience you should witness first-hand. Recognized as one of the BEST children's magicians in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware, Ran'D Shine is not your typical magician. In fact he prefers to be called an entertainer that uses magic as his medium. His show has received rave reviews from librarians, teachers, and summer camp directors. In addition to his regional performances, Ran'D has been seen on The CW network’s Penn & Teller Fool Us and The Military Month of the child at several Navy bases in Japan. In the summer of 2017 and 20118, Ran'D completed a tour of teaching magic and performing for the summer programs for libraries and camps along the east Coast.
