- **Event Description**: Get ready to meet the coolest VIPs—Very Important Penguins! ?✨

The Newport Aquarium’s WAVE Foundation is bringing their penguin ambassadors to Hillview for an unforgettable encounter. You’ll get to meet an African penguin up close and learn all about these amazing birds—their icy (or not-so-icy!) habitats, what’s on the menu for dinner, and how they survive and thrive in the wild.

From fun facts to fascinating stories, you’ll discover just how unique penguins really are—and how conservation efforts help protect them around the world. Space is limited, so don’t miss your chance to waddle into this unforgettable experience!

HEADS UP!: Newport Aquarium may need to cancel or reschedule this event if an increase in avian flu cases makes it unsafe for their penguin ambassadors to travel. Please check our website or ask a library staff member before the event for the most up-to-date information.

?️ PLEASE NOTE— Due to construction, this event will take place at an offsite location. We hope to see you there!
