Music, magic and the moon
part of free SummerFest
scheduled for Friday, July 19
Music,
magic and the moon are the order of the day when SummerFest kicks off
at the Red River County Public Library.
The
event will be from 1-4 p.m. Friday, July 19, at library, 307 N.
Walnut. SummerFest will mark the conclusion of the 2019 Summer
Reading Program, and is free and open to the public.
Trey
Rose, a contestant on Season 16 of The Voice, will perform at 1 p.m.
Rose, a native of Hugo, Okla., first took the stage at the age of 17
when his father took him to an open mike night at a bar. The owner
was so impressed with Rose’s performance that he asked him to sing
the night out. Since making a name for himself on the national level,
Rose has traveled the country performing. His musical style has been
compared to that of Gavin Degraw and Rob Thomas.
At
3 p.m. Darryl the Magician will take the stage. Darryl Miller was an
understudy of Bobo the Magician, who performed countless times at
Clarksville schools. Miller has performed as the opening act for Dan
Seales, David Ball, Billy Joe Royal, Jo’El Sonnier and former
Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee. Miller combines classic magic, ilusions
and humor in this show.
At
2 p.m. there will be several space-related crafts available for
children. The Summer Reading Program theme this year is A Universe of
Stories, which ties in to the 50th
anniversary of the moon landing and NASA’s 60 years of
achievements. This summer children are learning about space
exploration through stories, crafts and other activities.
Red
River County Public Library is one of 4,800 libraries featured on the
“Summer of Space” map, which shows which libraries serve as
centers of space science learning for their communities. Most of the
libraries are in the United States, but there is one in India, one in
Japan, one in Taiwan and one in the Mariana Islands.
