What is a Book Carnival?

  

A book carnival may bring about many different ideas to many different people. We're all unique, so that's OK. What WE (the SPLASH! Organizing Team) mean when we say book carnival is a kid-immersive event with a book theme. 

Did you ever have fund-raiser carnivals at your school? Like that.

Have you ever been to a Ren Faire with cosplayers making you feel like you had stepped back in time? Like that.

Loads of Ways to Play at SPLASH!

Auditions, Cosplay, Reader’s Theatre, Music, and Dance

Play Games with Mermaids and Pirates

Mermaid and Pirate Training, Makeovers, and Photo Ops

Face Painting, Henna, Caricatures, Live Art Demos

Painting, Sculpting, and More Art

Conservation Activities

Lots and lots to READ!!

Special performers will become living characters from the organizers’ books and stories!

We can turn you (or your teddy bear) into a pirate or mermaid!

Ever wanted to put on a mermaid tail sack and race? We can do that. 

Do you dream of searching for treasure? We can do that.

Of course there are going to be books and storytellers!

Shaina and Phyl are all dressed up and ready to plunder!
