Meeting Room

Join us to create a model of a neuron! For kids ages 8 – 12 with a parent or guardian.

You have trillions of cells in your body and more than 10 billion nerve cells in your brain. These nerve cells are also called neurons. Neurons communicate with one another by sending electrical messages from one part of your body to another.

This event is held in-person. LA County Public Health strongly encourages masks and physical distancing indoors regardless of vaccination status. Masks will continue to be available for customers upon request.

About the branch

The Castaic Library opened in November, 2008 in a 6,985 square foot storefront facility. To meet the needs of a growing community, a renovated and expanded library opened in March, 2015. The new Castaic Library features a community meeting room, two group study rooms, an expansive Children's area and a dedicated Teen area. Prior to the opening of the Castaic Library, the area was served by the Santa Clarita Bookmobile.
