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

Lake Los Angeles and other rural areas in the Eastern Antelope Valley were served by a County of Los Angeles Public Library bookmobile for 20 years. A letter-writing campaign prompted the development of a permanent site to better serve the community. The library opened on May 19, 1992 with a grand opening ceremony on May 30, 1992.
