Get ready for laughs, learning, and a whole lot of “eww!” as author CHRISTINE VIRNIG dives into the stinkiest, slimiest, and most surprising jobs from history featured in her book Waist-Deep in Dung: A Stomach-Churning Look at the Grossest Jobs Throughout History. From poop scoopers to grave robbers to TP holders, Christine brings history to life through gross-out fun and fascinating facts. This event is intended for school-age children, teens, and their families.
We’ll offer hands-on *super gross* activities and *super gross* food tasting inspired by the book.
