LEGO Club gives participants (children and teens) an opportunity to make interesting creations with Legos and have their designs displayed to the public at Powell Library. Each month a building theme will be chosen and utilized on both Lego Club days. The participants can make a Lego creation, and the designs will be displayed in the Powell Library for about a month. Valerie Knight will be the presenting on both dates. Her credentials are an enjoyment of working with children and encouraging their creativity and believing that Legos are educational while also being a lot of fun. All supplies and equipment are provided by the Powell Library. Powell and Knox County Libraries juvenile collections books related to the building theme of the month will be displayed. Participants will be encouraged to explore the theme and any other topics of interest to them further on their own by accessing books and materials from KCPL.

Knoxville is the University of Tennessee's city, on the Tennessee River, and the 1982 World's Fair left it the Sunsphere and the park beneath. Zoo Knoxville, the East Tennessee History Center and Ijams Nature Center are the family fixtures, with the Smokies an hour away. Knox County Public Library's Lawson McGhee branch is downtown.
Holiday events for kids in Knoxville, 2026: tree lightings, light displays, Santa visits and gingerbread workshops, day by day.
24 children’s events are on in Knoxville in the next seven days, read every night from the calendars of Knox County Public Library (15 branches, 275 upcoming programmes), plus East Tennessee History Center. Library programmes are free. Museum and zoo events say “admission may apply”; check the venue for prices.
The same calendars serve Farragut and Powell, so searching any of those names finds the same events.
