Programs for Kids and Families
We’ll host in-person programs for kids and families throughout the summer to keep youth engaged, entertained, and motivated to reach their reading goals.
There will be storytimes, magicians, animal visitors, craft projects, musicians, and so much more!
Find out more about all of our summer events and what you can do when. We can't wait to see you!
Groups interested in participating in summer activities should contact their local children’s librarian as soon as possible.
