Program Description

Join the Fort Smith Public Library for the annual Black Heritage Celebration; an inspiring, informative, and entertaining celebration of African American history and heritage.  This year's all-ages event will feature magician Tommy Terrific's educational magic show about the African-American scientist and inventor, George Washington Carver. The show will feature magic tricks related to his promotion of peanuts, sweet potatoes and much, much more.  Throughout the show, Tommy Terrific will explore the products, inventions, and accomplishments of the "Wizard of Tuskegee," George Washington Carver.   This show does not contain any actual peanut products, and it is great educational entertainment for children of all ages.  A display of library materials related to African American history and heritage will also be featured at this special Black History event.
