Join us this summer at your local library! We are celebrating the “Color Our World” theme through our activity book, summer performances, craft activities, book displays and more! Our summer programming has something for all ages, but it is especially geared towards school-age children, tweens and teens.
Visit your library beginning June 1 to pick up an activity book! Inside you’ll find a complete listing of our summer programs and performances. The activity book also includes puzzles, a coloring page, and our summer reading program.
Be sure to include some of our summer performance dates and locations on your family calendar! (Details coming soon.)
Families can plan to make some wonderful summer memories when they visit their local library!
