Remake Learning

This event is one of the many programs happening throughout Sarasota County for the Remake Learning Days Festival. Support for this program has been provided by the Patterson Foundation. 

A ghostly presence has infiltrated the library's computer system, causing strange glitches and digital chaos. To free the ghost—and yourself—you must solve a series of clues hidden around the library.

Participants will receive a prize.
