In conjunction with the 2025 Summer Reading Challenge, the Youth Services department at Fort Bend County Libraries’ Fulshear Branch Library will host a special performance of “The Science of Sound,” by Young Audiences of Houston teaching partner Tom’s Fun Band, on Wednesday, June 11, beginning at 3 p.m. and 4 p.m., in the Meeting Room of the library, located at 6350 GM Library Road, off Texas Heritage Parkway, north of FM 1093.

In this fun and interactive performance for children of all ages, learn how sound waves, vibrations, air molecules, and frequency all come together to create music. Demonstrations of unique sounds are introduced with a trumpet, guitar, flute, hand percussion, and concertina.

Children are encouraged to sing, move, and listen together, as they explore how sound is produced, how it moves, and how it is perceived.

Space is limited. Free tickets are required for entry and will be handed out starting one hour before showtime. No late admittance.

This performance is made possible by the Friends of the Library.

FBCL’s annual Summer Reading Challenge encourages reading among children from birth and up, as well as teens and adults. Readers of all ages can earn rewards based on the number of books they read or time they spend reading, and children can participate in a variety of fun and exciting programs at the libraries in June and July.

The program is free and open to the public. For more information, see the Fort Bend County Libraries’ website (www.fortbendlibraries.gov) or call the library system’s Communications Office (281-633-4734).
