SUMMARY:Teen Night: 14th Annual Literary Reaping (ages 12–18)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]Meet other readers and answer trivia with others teens in Paris during our annual literary quiz night. During this evening event dedicated to fun\, games\, and trivia\, you’ll be placed in teams to answer trivia questions\, and complete challenges based on young adult literature—both classic and contemporary. In the past\, participants were asked to shoot an arrow as straight as Katniss\, prove a knowledge of the gods that rivals Percy and Magnus\, identify the villains in the room\, and decide on the perfect spell faster than a magical maji. Wands\, arrows\, and other supplies will be provided. All participating teens will win a brand new book to take home and keep. \nThis event will be hosted by Children’s and Teens’ Services Manager Celeste Rhoads with the help of local authors and other talent serving as Gamemakers for the evening. \nPizza and drinks will be provided by the Library. \nMay the odds be ever in your favor… \n*Please note the late end time for this event. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1758812283369{border-left-width: 8px !important;padding-left: 8px !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-color: #9e0143 !important;}”]Important information: \nThis event is free for Library members\, and 15€ per teen for non-members.
