Horse Discovery Day - at Potomac Library

Curious about horses, ponies, or even unicorns? This unmounted (no live horses) workshop welcomes young horse lovers of all experience levels. Through interactive activities, participants will discover fun facts about horses, from anatomy to riding basics, while exploring local equestrian opportunities. Then it's time for The Mane Event! Create a one-of-a-kind horse bookmark by decorating it with colorful art materials and weaving in a bright yarn mane, a keepsake that's perfect for your next great read. Every participant will also receive an Equity for Equestrians Discovery Booklet filled with fun horse games, activities, and coloring pages. For ages 7-11. Spaces are limited; pre-registration is strongly encouraged. About the Presenter: Ava Williams is the founder of Equity for Equestrians, a Girl Scout Gold Award initiative dedicated to making horse education more accessible and helping young people discover pathways into the equestrian community.
